They’re VC-funded and their business model is vendor lock-in. See their response to my discussion:

https://github.com/fermyon/spin/discussions/861

With WasmEdge there is no vendor lock-in

I composed several responses to this but I'll just say sorry for mentioning a competitor in this thread and leave it at that. Didn't know it would touch a nerve.

Hi, Mikkel from Fermyon here.

Both Spin and the Fermyon Platform are open-source projects. Fermyon Cloud is a managed service built on top of the Fermyon Platform.

In comparison with WasmEdge, the WebAssembly runtime used in Spin is Wasmtime, which is also open sourced and built by the Bytecode Alliance.

Hope this expands upon the existing response.
