Open Source Sponsorship
ElfHosted's model is basically to be paid for providing the infrastructure, configuration, automation, maintenance, development and time necessary to successfully run popular open-source tools at scale.
We believe in supporting the open-source devs whose work supports our ecosystem, and proudly support the following.
