About: Server Side Public License

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Server Side Public License (SSPL) is a source-available software license introduced by MongoDB Inc. in 2018. It includes most of the text and provisions of the GNU Affero General Public License version 3 (AGPL v3), and primarily replaces section 13 "Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License." with a new section that requires that anyone who offers the functionality of SSPL-licensed software to third-parties as a service must release the entirety of their source code, including all software, APIs, and other software that would be required for a user to run an instance of the service themselves, under the SSPL. In contrast, the AGPL v3's section 13 covers only the program itself (the copyrightable work licensed under AGPL v3).

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Die Server Side Public License (SSPL) ist eine starke Copyleft--Software-Lizenz, die im Jahr 2018 durch den Hersteller von MongoDB eingeführt wurde. Sie ist eine Modifikation der GNU Affero General Public License Version 3 (AGPL v3), ⁣ nach der jeder, der die Funktionalität der für die SSPL lizenzierten Software Dritten als Dienst anbietet, den gesamten Quellcode, einschließlich aller Software, APIs und anderer Software, die ein Nutzer benötigt, um eine Instanz des Dienstes selbst zu betreiben, unter der SSPL freigeben muss. Das Unternehmen behauptet, es gewähre mit der SSPL „alle Freiheiten, die die Community schon immer mit MongoDB unter [der GNU Affero General Public License] hatte“. Dennoch wird die SSPL von mehreren Parteien, einschließlich der Open Source Initiative (OSI) und mehreren großen Linux-Distributionen, nicht als freie Software anerkannt, da die oben genannte Bestimmung bestimmte Anwendungsbereiche diskriminiert.

  • The Server Side Public License (SSPL) is a source-available software license introduced by MongoDB Inc. in 2018. It includes most of the text and provisions of the GNU Affero General Public License version 3 (AGPL v3), and primarily replaces section 13 "Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License." with a new section that requires that anyone who offers the functionality of SSPL-licensed software to third-parties as a service must release the entirety of their source code, including all software, APIs, and other software that would be required for a user to run an instance of the service themselves, under the SSPL. In contrast, the AGPL v3's section 13 covers only the program itself (the copyrightable work licensed under AGPL v3). The SSPL is not recognized as free software by multiple parties, including the Open Source Initiative (OSI) and multiple major Linux vendors, as the aforementioned provision is discriminatory towards specific fields of use. In its announcement, MongoDB Inc. wrote that it grants "all of the same freedoms the community has always had with MongoDB under [the GNU Affero General Public License]", however, all companies who were offering MongoDB as a service under the AGPLv3 have declined to do so under the SSPL. The requirement to release "all programs that you use to make the Program or modified version available as a service" under the SSPL is seemingly incompatible with using the kernel Linux, which is under the GPLv2-only license and does not allow it to be released under any other license, including the SSPL. There are no companies who offer MongoDB as a service under the SSPL, including MongoDB Inc.'s own service. (en)
