## Background The `cloudberry-backup` project was originally derived from Greenplum backup tooling and still contains legacy code paths, configurations, and compatibility logic intended to support Greenplum Database environments. Since Apache Cloudberry has evolved as an independent project with its own architecture, release cycle, and compatibility guarantees, continuing to maintain legacy Greenplum support introduces unnecessary complexity and maintenance burden. ## Motivation Removing legacy Greenplum support will provide several benefits: - Simplify the codebase and reduce maintenance overhead - Improve code clarity and long-term maintainability - Align the project strictly with Apache Cloudberry’s architecture and roadmap - Reduce testing and validation scope - Avoid confusion about supported platforms The `cloudberry-backup` project should be focused solely on serving Apache Cloudberry users. ## Scope of Changes Expected areas of modification include: - Source code cleanup and removal of Greenplum-specific logic - Update build, configuration, and runtime checks - Documentation updates - Test suite cleanup - CI workflow adjustments if applicable ## Compatibility Impact This change will be backward-incompatible for Greenplum users. However, since this repository is now part of the Apache Cloudberry ecosystem, focusing exclusively on Cloudberry is consistent with project goals. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
