Kiba ETL: feedback on OSS / open-core sustainability for a Ruby gem

It’s pretty easy to get burned out in OSS, as we all know! Since starting working on Kiba ETL (a ruby data processing framework) in 2015, I made a number of decisions to avoid this at all cost, and make sure my research on this would be funded sustainably, in a way or another.

In this talk, I give feedback on which conscious design decisions & trade-offs I made over time and I will explain where I stand at the moment.
