HashiCorp's new license and Coder

on August 11th, 2023

On August 10th, HashiCorp announced that future versions of their products will be licensed under BSL instead of MPL. They addressed FAQs here.

For Coder, FAQ#10 has the most relevant language:

All non-production uses are permitted. All production uses are allowed other than hosting or embedding the software in an offering competitive with HashiCorp products or services.

We do not compete with a HashiCorp product, so we're compliant and will not change our roadmap or business in light of this news.

We have a good relationship with HashiCorp and hope to continue building amazing products together.
