minio
MinIO is a high-performance, S3 compatible object store, open sourced under GNU AGPLv3 license.
MinIO also switched to AGPLv3 a while back, and they stated that “the AGPL license requires that all software connecting with MinIO be 100% open source for you/your users not to be in violation of the license.”[^1] Since Redis and MinIO are somewhat similar, (Both can be used to store and retrieve data. One uses a custom protocol. The other one uses an S3-compatible API.) Should I assume that this statement also applies to Redis?

Project mention: OpenFeature – a vendor-agnostic, community-driven API for feature flagging | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-10-25
Speaking as an open-source feature flag 'vendor' (https://github.com/flipt-io/flipt), the OpenFeature organization has been a joy to work with. They are very welcoming of new contributors (e.g., implementing a provider SDK in a new language).
If you're interested in this space I'd recommend lurking in their CNCF Slack Channel https://cloud-native.slack.com/archives/C0344AANLA1
