Episode 79 of The Open Source Business explores how open source software companies are increasingly adopting usage-based pricing models to align revenue with customer value. Lucas and Luna dive into the recent shift at Redis, which moved from an open source license to a source-available model with usage-based pricing for its cloud service. They discuss the mechanics of usage-based pricing for infrastructure software, the trade-offs between predictability and flexibility, and how companies like Confluent and MongoDB have navigated similar transitions. The hosts also examine the impact on developer adoption and enterprise sales, and consider whether usage-based pricing could become the dominant model for commercial open source. Specific numbers and examples include Redis's pricing changes in 2024, Confluent's consumption-based pricing for Kafka, and MongoDB's Atlas usage tiers. A must-listen for founders, product managers, and investors in the open source ecosystem. #OpenSourceBusiness #UsageBasedPricing #Redis #Confluent #MongoDB #BusinessModel #CloudPricing #DeveloperEconomics #SoftwareLicensing #RevenueModel #ConsumptionPricing #InfrastructureSoftware #SourceAvailable #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #BusinessAndTechnology #PricingStrategy #SaaS Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
