The real question is can the microVMs run in just plain old linux, self-hosted.

Everyone wants to lock you in.
Unfortunately there's no other way to make money. If you're 100% liberally licensed, you just get copied. AWS/GCP clone your product, offer the same offering, and they take all the money.
It sucks that there isn't a middle ground. I don't want to have to build castles in another person's sandbox. I'd trust it if they gave me the keys to do the same. I know I don't have time to do that, but I want the peace of mind.
we have 100% open-source Sandboxes at E2B
git: https://github.com/e2b-dev/infra
wiki: https://deepwiki.com/e2b-dev/infra
This is what I like to see!
Not sure what your customers look like, but I'd for one also be fine with "fair source" licenses (there are several - fair source, fair code, Defold license, etc.)
These give customers 100% control but keep Amazon, Google, and other cling-on folks like WP Engine from reselling your work. It avoids the Docker, Elasticsearch, Redis fate.
"OSI" is a submarine from big tech hyperscalers that mostly take. We should have gone full Stallman, but fair source is a push back against big tech.
