+
+This Cloudberry incubation report summarizes our major progress during
November 2025 to January 2026. It is adapted from the [Apache Incubator Report
February
2026](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/INCUBATOR/February2026#cloudberry),
with some modifications for readability.

+## Cloudberry
+
+Cloudberry is an advanced and mature open-source Massively Parallel Processing
(MPP) database, derived from the open-source version of Pivotal Greenplum
Database®️ but built on a more modern PostgreSQL 14 kernel, whereas Greenplum
is based on PostgreSQL 12. This upgrade brings enhanced enterprise
capabilities, making Cloudberry well-suited for data warehousing, large-scale
analytics, and AI/ML workloads.
+
+Cloudberry has been incubating since 2024-10-11.
+
+### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
+
+ 1. Grow the contributor and community to ensure long-term sustainability.
+ 2. Publish a few more Apache releases following the ASF release processes.
+
+### How has the community developed since the last report?
+
+ - Mailing list Activity: 82 new emails on the Dev mailing list since the
last report, covering community, repositories, support, technical and
Apache-related discussions.
+ - GitHub Discussions: 5 new threads since last report.
+ - New Committers: Rose Duan
+ - Events:
+ - Hosted a Cloudberry community booth at the China Open Source Conference
(COSCon'25) in Beijing, Dec 6-7, 2025.
+ - Apache Cloudberry Meetup organized in Shenzhen: 30+ attendees on Jan 17th
+ - Commenced Apache Cloudberry Bi-weekly Community Meeting, see details in
https://s.apache.org/9ba4d, the 1st meeting was held on January 30, 2026.
+
+### How has the project developed since the last report?
+
+ - PostgreSQL Kernel upgrade (14~>16): at this stage, most of the core
enablement work for PostgreSQL 16.9 has been completed. Currently addressing
Cloudberry schedule tests.
+ - Performance
+ - PAX: optimize I/O read for multiple discrete columns in a group.
+ - Add UDP2 interconnect protocol implementation (right now it is still an
experimental feature).
+ - Set `join_collapse_limit` default value to 13.
+ - Stability
+ 1. Merged 72 commits, most of them - bugfixes and CI/CD improvements.
+ 2. Fixed 2 CVEs.
+ - CI and infra
+ 1. Added support for Ubuntu 22.04 and Debian packages to CI/CD
+ 2. Added support for Rocky Linux 8 to CI/CD
+ - Sub-repositories:
+ - `cloudberry-pxf`. After several months of continuous effort, the PXF
project has recently achieved a significant milestone:
+ 1. The code baseline has been 100% aligned with the archived pxf-archive
from GP.
+ 2. Completed full adaptation for Cloudberry.
+ 3. Added a relatively comprehensive and extensive CI pipeline for PXF.
+ 4. Source code cleanup is in progress.
+ - Squash `cloudberry-bootcamp` repository into `devops/sandbox` in the
main repository catalog.
+ - New release: 2.1
+ - Merged 244 commits from `main` to `REL_2_STABLE`. We're ready to release
Cloudberry 2.1.
+ - Ecosystem
+ 1. Madlib integration is still in progress. We successfully performed
manual tests, but PR is still open to fix the CI bugs:
https://github.com/apache/madlib/pull/627.
+ 2. Working on diskquota extension integration: still in progress - see
https://github.com/apache/cloudberry/pull/1490.
+ - 2025 Summary and 2026 Overview discussions
+ 1. Published Cloudberry 2025 Review blog post: https://s.apache.org/fxde8
+ 2. Initiated Cloudberry 2026 roadmap discussions:
https://s.apache.org/jxd7s
