The business value of Open Source - more than just publishing source code
summary
amazee.io open-sources Lagoon (released Aug 2017) and uses it to automate Kubernetes for hosted Drupal, WordPress, Django and Node sites, claiming the platform reduces ops work by codifying deployments and integrating with local tooling like Lando. Partnerships produce features (a developer learned Ruby to add a GitLab patch), contributions hit 15 upstream contributions in 12 months, and the company pursues co‑created customer-driven roadmap items that ship and get reused.
