If I had to summarize the most common dev tool / OSS monetization strategy today, it'd probably be "come for the tool, stay for the managed cloud platform"
Replying to @aashaysanghvi_
While some things have changed (growth in # of devs, positive sway in IT purchasing), I don't think it's as easy as "we'll just build a cloud for teams" and you've solved commercialization.

Feels like bash scripts & config files are to dev tools what “spreadsheets and emails” are to SaaS. Unstructured problem spaces that create opportunity for a product (repeatability, automation, collaboration).

Machine Learning models are the new software artifacts getting operationalized at scale today but they are hard to debug! If I were an ML Engineer on-call and got a PagerDuty alert that CLICKs are down on our AI-based recommendations product, how do I troubleshoot it? /thread
