Hello, I would like to clarify a few points.

IBM BAMOE 9.3 is described as an "Open Edition."
Does this mean that it is free of charge?
Can I download it normally and install it on any server without requiring a commercial license?

Secondly, is there a difference between the files available in the GitHub repository at
https://github.com/IBM/bamoe
and the packages shown in Fix Central in the attached screenshot?

When performing the installation, should I use the container-based deployment, or is there also a non-container installation option?

Finally, the packages available on Fix Central appear to be quite large in size.
What is the reason for this?



Lastly, could you please provide an explanation of what each file shown in the screenshot is used for, and also clarify the corresponding components in BAMOE 8.0?


Thanks in advance

Hi Senol,

IBM BAMOE 9.3 Open Edition is free to download and use without a commercial license. You can download it from GitHub or IBM Fix Central

The GitHub repository provides source code and community resources, while Fix Central hosts pre-built, tested binaries for enterprise use.

Deployment is container-first, and that is the recommended approach. 

The larger package size on Fix Central is due to bundled dependencies and components for a complete, production-ready installation.
