Redis, the popular in-memory data store, is switching away from the open source three-clause BSD license. Instead, in a move that is clearly aimed to prevent the large cloud providers from offering free alternatives to Redis’ own hosted services, Redis will now be dual-licensed under the Redis Source Available License (RSALv2) and Server Side Public License (SSPLv1). Under this new license, cloud service providers hosting Redis will need to enter into a commercial agreement with Redis. The first company to do so is Microsoft.

ImageSharp, ImageSharp.Drawing, and ImageSharp.Web will all be dual licensed under a AGPLv3/Commercial license. The AGPLv3 license will come with exceptions which allow bundling the code alongside all well known open source licenses (Apache 2.0, MIT etc). Any projects seen as direct competition (Imaging SDKs) will not be able to utilize that exception.
