Greenplum is now open, as in open source. greenplum.org is the site with all of the info and you can checkout the source yourself on github. Pivotal has been working to this internally for awhile and it is a huge step forward. I can’t think of any software product that was pulling in such significant revenue that was moved to the open source space. Industry wide we are in the middle of a shift similar to when music went from the phonograph to radio and it’s good to see Pivotal embracing the future.
