Since the environment is defined within a container, every developer working on the project operates in the same environment, regardless of their host system. This eliminates the classic "works on my machine" problem, ensuring that the code behaves the same way in development, testing, and production. For more on environment consistency refer to this article [on standardized development environment](https://www.daytona.io/definitions/s/standardized-development-environment-sde). +One of the most significant advantages of using Dev Containers is their +consistency across different machines.

Dev Containers simplify onboarding by providing a pre-configured environment. New developers can get started quickly by pulling the container image and launching it with a few commands. This efficiency reduces the time spent on setup and allows developers to focus on writing code.

There’s no need to install a myriad of libraries, tools, or dependencies directly on the host machine, reducing the risk of conflicts and clutter. This approach also makes it easier to work on multiple projects with different requirements without worrying about cross-contamination of dependencies. +By isolating the development environment within a container, Dev Containers keep +the host system clean.

This approach also makes it easier to work on multiple projects with +different requirements without worrying about cross-contamination of +dependencies. ### Cons of Dev Containers #### 1. **Added Complexity** -Dev Containers are great, but they come with their own set of challenges. You’ll need to get a handle on containerization, Docker commands, and possibly managing multiple containers. For those new to these technologies, it can be a bit overwhelming. Plus, keeping container images up to date takes more work than traditional setups. +Dev Containers are great, but they come with their own set of challenges.

Plus, keeping container images up to date takes more work than +traditional setups. #### 2. **Potential Performance Issues** -Containers run in a virtualized environment, which can introduce performance overhead compared to running applications directly on the host machine. Although the overhead is generally minimal, it can become noticeable in resource-intensive applications. Developers working on high-performance tasks may experience slower build times or reduced application performance within a container. +Containers run in a virtualized environment, which can introduce performance +overhead compared to running applications directly on the host machine.

This direct access can lead to better performance, particularly in applications that require intensive processing or real-time capabilities. +Traditional setups allow developers to interact directly with the hardware, +without the abstraction layer that containers introduce. This direct access can +lead to better performance, particularly in applications that require intensive +processing or real-time capabilities. #### 2. **Simplicity and Familiarity** -For many developers, traditional development environments are familiar and straightforward. There’s no need to learn new tools or concepts, making it easier for teams to maintain and troubleshoot the setup.

This can lead to inconsistencies in how code behaves across different machines, making debugging and collaboration more challenging. Managing dependencies and ensuring consistency becomes a manual and error-prone task. +Over time, traditional development environments are prone to "environment +drift," where different developers’ setups begin to diverge.

This oversight leads to +surprises and unexpected challenges, forcing companies to make quick, decisive +actions that inevitably upset part of the open-source community. ## Main Reasons Behind Ditching Open Source -1. **Protection from Cloud Providers**: This is by far the most important and unfortunate reason. Most cloud provider giants [abuse the open-source nature](https://techcrunch.com/2018/11/29/the-crusade-against-open-source-abuse/) of these companies, profiting without giving anything in return. This leaves companies with few options: become proprietary or lose some part of open-source. - -2. **Sustainability and Revenue Generation**: Most open-source projects lack a sustainable business model. For example, compare MySQL to MongoDB. Both are databases, and both are almost open-source, but MongoDB knows how to generate revenue while MySQL does not. This is evident in MongoDB's annual revenue of **[$154 M](https://growjo.com/company/MongoDB)** compared to MySQL's **[$37 M](https://growjo.com/company/Oracle_MySQL)**. This financial disparity often leads to companies either dying, getting acquired by a tech giant, or opting for an enterprise license. - -3. **Maintaining Competitive Advantage**: While open-source licenses foster innovation, they can also erode a company’s competitive edge. Your competitor might claim to have built a service independently, but you know it's just your code running behind the scenes with some modifications—a tactic cloud providers are notorious for. By restricting certain commercial uses, companies can retain control over how their software is used, ensuring they remain competitive in the market. - -4. **Community and Ecosystem Management**: A more restrictive license can help manage the ecosystem that develops around the software. Enterprises can set clear boundaries on how their software should be used, aligning development and usage with the company's long-term objectives. +1. **Protection from Cloud Providers**: This is by far the most important and + unfortunate reason.

Here are some +[Open Source Licenses to Avoid](https://brainhub.eu/library/open-source-licenses-to-avoid), +which you don't want for your startup. ## Final Thoughts -In the end, it's easy to be drawn toward the security of proprietary software, but let's not forget the unparalleled power of open-source. When an entire community rallies behind a project, incredible things happen—think **Linux**, **Firefox**, **Blender**, or **Python**. These aren't just tools; they're the backbone of innovation, built on the collective effort of people who believe in something bigger than themselves. Linus Torvalds highlights this: +In the end, it's easy to be drawn toward the security of proprietary software, +but let's not forget the unparalleled power of open-source.

Instead of repeatedly clicking the submit button after each change, you can now press `Ctrl+S` to save the form at any time. -- **Docker Requirement Check:** Now, when you start the local container registry, Daytona will verify that Docker is installed and running correctly. This ensures a smoother startup process. -- **Server Configuration Directory Fix:** Corrects directory creation for remote profiles. Previously, when you modified a directory path in the server configuration for a remote profile, Daytona would automatically attempt to create the directory on your local machine. This update now prevents unnecessary directory creation on the host machine when using remote profiles. -- **Daytona Creation Logs:** We've fixed an issue that affected Daytona creation logs.
