  1. opentofu

    OpenTofu lets you declaratively manage your cloud infrastructure.

    Please remember to file in a calm and orderly fashion toward the exits and remember: IBM killed Centos for profit.

    Terraform users can pick up their new alternative here:

    https://opentofu.org/

    and for those of you with Vault, you can find your new alternative here:

    https://openbao.org/

  3. infisical

    Infisical is the open-source platform for secrets management, internal PKI, and SSH access.

    Do you know that OpenBao is actually funded by IBM?

    I'm biased (co-founder) but you should take a look at Infisical for secret management: https://infisical.com

  4. openbao

    OpenBao exists to provide a software solution to manage, store, and distribute sensitive data including secrets, certificates, and keys.

    FWIW, most of the code and docs contributions have come from non-IBMers [0]. That said, IBM has done a lot of great work building the foundation and initial community and without them, OpenBao wouldn't be here. :-)

    Speaking for myself, but I do not get any monetary compensation from IBM and I suspect this is true for all of the other non-IBM contributors.

    [0]: https://github.com/openbao/openbao/releases/tag/v2.0.0-alpha...

  5. Nomad

    Nomad is an easy-to-use, flexible, and performant workload orchestrator that can deploy a mix of microservice, batch, containerized, and non-containerized applications. Nomad is easy to operate and scale and has native Consul and Vault integrations.

    I don't have any further insight, but looking at <https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/forks?include=active&page...> coughed up https://github.com/atlassian/nomad/branches although confusingly it says "updated last week" but browsing any one of the branches seems to be stupid old so I got nothing

    Finding conceptual forks, e.g. $(git push --mirror ...) would be trickier but I bet sourcegraph could do it

    Ultimately, the question boils down to: what risk are you driving down: hitching your wagon to a dead stack, not getting security updates, not getting PRs merged, $other?

  6. nomad

    Nomad is a highly available, distributed, data-center aware cluster and application scheduler designed to support the modern datacenter with support for long-running services, batch jobs, and much more. (by atlassian)
