- Shorter support windows, with longer support available for purchase (VMWare actually introduced this, but Broadcom can weaponize it)
- Then Enterprise Spring, which has additional features
- Then some other license shenaningans.
Hazelcast recently made the move where CVE security updates are only released into the OSS ecosystem quarterly - whereas the enterprise model gets them as soon as they're ready. In OSS, you have to rebuild and patch yourself.
That's a special kind of evil, which has Broadcom DNA all over it.
