Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Show HN: Rivet (YC W23) – Open-Source Game Server Management with Nomad and Rust
https://github.com/rivet-gg/rivet/blob/main/docs/infrastruct...
lists nomad as apache 2.0, when its either MPL or BUSL depending on version.

HashiCorp Adopts Business Source License
We built our OSS company (Apache 2.0) with Nomad at its core. We provide game server orchestration with a handful of services around it, which could be misconstrued to be considered providing a "competitive offering to HashiCorp." Needless to say, we'll be freezing our Nomad version at the last MPL version because of how vague the license is (intentionally).
We also use CockroachDB which uses BSL, but we're not providing a remotely competitive offering.
I'll likely continue to recommend HashiCorp products (Nomad, Consul, Terraform, and Packer) to anyone who asks my advice, but it's disappointing to hear this change.
We maintain a rudimentary SBOM for anyone curious: https://github.com/rivet-gg/rivet/blob/main/docs/infrastruct...

HashiCorp Adopts Business Source License
Sure, but the providers for some of the biggest platforms are maintained by HashiCorp[1] - like the AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes providers[2], and it appears the Pulumi AWS provider (for example) _does_ use the Terraform AWS provider, even to this day[3].
1. https://developer.hashicorp.com/terraform/registry/providers... - "official" providers are maintained by HashiCorp
2. https://registry.terraform.io/browse/providers?tier=official - The filtered list of "official" providers maintained by HashiCorp
3. https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-aws/tree/008c4360bc9fc24303... - Just prove it to myself, I can see the `upstream` git submodule, which embeds pulumi/terraform-provider-aws, which is a fork of hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws, although the repo was not created as a fork in Github, so it is not marked as a "fork" and so I have to compare commit histories to tell that it is a fork.

Converting Full Terraform Programs to Pulumi
>Isn't pulumi aws just terraform under the hood still?
It depends.
The AWS "Classic" provider uses the terraform provider [1].
The AWS "Native" provider does not, and instead uses the AWS Cloud Control API [2].

For IaC: Pulumi or Terraform?
Pulumi uses terraform providers to schematize the CRUD options for some cloud providers. Part of the difficulty with any infrastructure as code offering is that your favourite cloud provider doesn't always provide a full API spec, so we need to somehow figure out what resources can be created, what parameters are available to those resources etc. We take the terraform provider, look at the available operations for that provider and then turned it into a Pulumi schema, which can then be read by the Pulumi engine. If you take a look here you can actually see that generated schema for AWS.
