We also provide guides for the most popular frameworks:
What is the license?
The Business Source License is identical to Apache 2.0 with the only exception being that you can't use the code to create a cloud service or, in other words, resell the product to others.
BSL is a more permissive license than, for example, AGPL, because it allows private changes to the code.
In three years, the code also becomes available under Apache 2.0 license. You can learn more about BSL here.
Is the database schema stable?
Yes, but we are still making changes to the database schema and plan to switch to ClickHouse dynamic subcolumns when that feature is stable enough.
