I don't understand the downvotes here. Yes this is the "the process has finished" post. And? It doesn't add anything, we already knew this was going to happen.
I’ve experimented with Fabio, Envoy and Nginx, but keep coming back to haproxy for its reliability and deep feature set. Things like stick tables and the acl system are insanely flexible/powerful.
>F5 is fully committed to open source, which has been core to NGINX throughout its history.
Correct me if im wrong, but F5 does not presently develop or endorse a single open source product. Things like "we are owners" and "we choose speed" on the vision of culture diagram seem lopsided when compared to 'progress' and 'curiousity.' its almost as if F5 never cared that NGINX had a commercial offering at all, and is instead focusing entirely on open-source generalizations.
Now hopefully F5 will continue to let Nginx be open source, but I'm not sure exactly how much more development they will do. Of course, it will be nice to see F5 to get the infusion of Nginx tech, because F5's code can use it.

Nothing about F5 is open.
