The Deletion of Docker.io/Bitnami

Snooping around, it seems the license costs $50K+ annually. I'm not their target market. ;)

> BSI is effectively democratizing security and compliance for open source so that it doesn’t require million-dollar contracts from vendors with sky-high valuations.

I suppose 50k isn't a million dollar contract, but it's certainly also not "democratizing" anything

The easiest strategy to be profitable as biz without acquiring new users base, lol :P

Depending on your needs, this could be a bargain as advertised. It's only expensive relative to what you can build on your own, or what competitors offer.

It's a bit tricky to work through all the jargon, but it's my understanding that they are simply pulling the mass of things that they provide for free. You can still get the Docker files for their offerings (not sure they offer all tags though?") and you can even use the images from Docker Hub.

But. What they are offering is considered "development" regardless of what you are using it for? In other words, NOT a production environment, because they aren't giving you a production environment (or at least what they define as a production environment.) What they give you for free is the "latest" and on a Debian system.

What they offer as "secure" is running on Photon OS and goes through a security pipeline, etc. They aren't holding anything back aside from the services they provide.
