The open-source core remains available to everyone under Apache-2.0. You can build from source, run it in your lab, and contribute without a subscription.
Subscriptions fund the official signed ISOs, the curated enterprise update channel, tested production releases, and commercial support. They do not change the licence on the public source tree.
