Open-source tools

HashiCorp provides a suite of open-source tools intended to support development and deployment of large-scale service-oriented software installations. Each tool is aimed at specific stages in the life cycle of a software application, with a focus on automation. Many have a plugin-oriented architecture in order to provide integration with third-party technologies and services.[6] Additional proprietary features for some of these tools are offered commercially and are aimed at enterprise customers.[7]

The main product line consists of these following tools:[2][6]

gollark: Intellectual property isn't really the same as regular property and this is probably now a <#583698936334647308> thing, oops.
gollark: I think they should probably just be capped at 8 years or so, or a bit longer if the author provides the source, to be released when it's up.
gollark: Also, proprietary programs *may* use incompatible library versions and stuff sometimes, but you can probably get around that.
gollark: You may also need to turn off Secure Boot though, and x86 tablets often have UEFI weirdness.
gollark: I'm not sure if distro installers detect this, but it's not too hard to install the right bootloader manually.
