Hey there selfhosters,

I imagine some of you are selfhosting Kubernetes and that you might have used some Bitnami images/helmchars.

Bitnami communicated recently about some changes in their catalog [here] (https://github.com/bitnami/charts/issues/35164), and will be effective at the end of August.

For the simple version, they are migrating images from docker.io/bitnami to docker.io/bitnamilegacy, implying some changes there.

But to be expected is that at some point even docker.io/bitnamilegacy will be removed (or of course pay a license to them to access their “secure” images)

I was wondering if someone was affected by this ?

Cheers !

    This is why I never used their images for any of my projects and do everything I can to use official charts made by the software vendor itself or create my own and put them in my personal git repo for automated deployments.

    Any business that gives away middleware for free, likely does that in the hopes of monetizing that pretty directly and eventually will be pressured to increase monetization of those things by those investors or will be forced to stop developing those products due to lack of funding. Middleware really doesn’t have many other good ways to monetize.
