As detailed in the our legal notices all projects use the Apache License 2.0. The Trino Software Foundation is committed to continue using the Apache License 2.0 as a liberal license to ensure the widest possible adoption of Trino by users and vendors alike.
The TSF is happy to have third parties, including for-profit corporations, take our software and use it for their own purposes. However it is important in these cases to ensure that the third party does not misuse the brand and reputation of the Trino projects for its own purposes. It is important for the longevity and community health of Trino that the community gets the appropriate credit for producing freely available software.
We encourage contributions from vendors with proprietary modifications and appreciate any further sponsorship and support.
In supporting the Trino community, the Trino Software Foundation has several key functions.
The core responsibility of the TSF is to serve as the legal entity which handles all administrative oversight for the Trino project. For example, this includes accounting, legal concerns, and trademarks. The TSF also manages the source code repositories and any other infrastructure.
Contributing to Trino requires agreeing to, signing, and submitting the Contributor License Agreement. The Trino Software Foundation is responsible for reviewing, approving, and tracking all signed CLAs. This ensures that all code contributed to Trino is fully under the Apache License.
The CLA is identical to the CLA of the Apache Software Foundation. All copyright for contributions remains with the individual authors.
The Trino brand and trademarks are owned and managed by the Trino Software Foundation. Use of the brand and trademarks by other entities is not permitted, but can be approved by the TSF on a case by case basis.
