So if you are aiming to be full featured, the modularity plus open source is your differentiator?
What are you going to do if AWS/GCP/Azure decides to offer a managed services version of your software? (I know, I know, that'd be a a great problem to have.)
AWS etc. already offer these services so the risk is low. I dislike the recent trend of companies changing licenses from a formerly FLOSS solution to "source available".
It prevents little in practice and makes it so that your original differentiator i.e. open source is no longer true.
> AWS etc. already offer these services so the risk is low.
I'm not sure about that. AWS had a NoSQL database, but replicated mongodb.
Anyway, I think that the risk doesn't occur until and unless supertokens hits a home run. I mean, if you're big enough for a hypercloud provider to copy, that means you've been pretty darn successful in distribution of your product.
We do intend to be a full featured solution. Though, since we are relatively new, we only provide email and password.
That being said, our approach is modular in nature so that users get only what they want.
