The Apache Cloudberry (Incubating) community is pleased to announce the release
of Apache Cloudberry 2.0.0, the project’s first official release under the
Apache Software Foundation.
We’d like to express our gratitude to all contributors to this release, as well
as to the mentors and the Apache Incubator community for their invaluable
support. This significant milestone reflects a collaborative effort to meet ASF
release requirements and establish Cloudberry as an open and community-driven
project.
## Key Highlights of Version 2.0.0
- **PostgreSQL 14 Foundation**: Built on PostgreSQL 14.x, bringing stable
PostgreSQL features and improvements to the distributed analytics environment
- **Performance Improvements**:
- Optimized Query Execution: Significant improvements in distributed query
planning and execution
- Enhanced Resource Management: Better memory and CPU utilization across
cluster nodes
- Improved Parallel Processing: More efficient data distribution and
parallel query processing
- **Backup and Recovery**: Improved backup strategies for distributed
environments
- **Dynamic Tables**: A new feature that enables automatic, scheduled refresh
of query results, designed for scenarios requiring up-to-date data, such as
real-time analytics, lakehouse architectures, and automated ETL pipelines
- **PAX Storage Format**: Introduces the PAX (Partition Attributes Across)
storage format, a hybrid approach that combines the advantages of row-based and
column-based storage. PAX delivers high performance for both data writes and
analytical queries, making it well-suited for OLAP workloads and large-scale
data analysis
- **ASF Compliance**: Updates on license headers, LICENSE/NOTICE/DISCLAIMER
files, refined dependency attributions, and more
