## 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. Publish the first Apache release following ASF release processes.
2. Grow the contributor and community to ensure long-term sustainability.
### Are there any issues that the IPMC or ASF Board need to be aware of?
We're working on the first ever Apache release. Hope to get enough
reviews and binding votes when the first Release vote email is sent to the
Incubator mailing list.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
- Mailing list Activity: 221 new emails on the Dev mailing list since the
last report (98 emails in May, 60 emails in June and 63 emails in July),
covering technical and Apache-related discussions.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMYqOoE4p5A, by contributor @Leonid Borchuk
and PPMC Member @Kirill Reshke at the sql-ninja conference.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
- Compliance with ASF policy:
- Renamed `greenplum_path` to `cloudberry-env.sh` for better compliance
with ASF rules.
- Updated Apache RAT license metadata for release.
- Changed PAX's cpp-stub from submodule to subdir to avoid introducing
binary files.
- Changed Python modules for gpMgmt from bundling their source tarballs
to downloading them during the build process via `pip3 install`.
- Working on the first Apache Cloudberry (Incubating) 2.0.0 release:
- Already had RC1 & RC2 rounds and fixed some license issues, will have
an RC3 round for the dev vote and Apache Incubator vote.
- PostgreSQL Kernel upgrade: the community developer has started the
kernel upgrade work from PG 14.4 to PG 16.6.
- 130 new commits to main branch since the last report, focusing on
performance improvements, bug fixes and new features.

- Apache SeaTunnel added official connector support for Apache
Cloudberry in its latest 2.3.11 release (See https://s.apache.org/baj30).
- Flink JDBC Connector v3.3.0+ now supports Cloudberry via PR

## Texera
Texera is an open-source system to support collaborative data science, AI,
and ML using GUI-based workflows. Our vision is to develop a system to
support cloud platforms on which users can easily analyze data and use AI/ML
techniques provided as operators. Users with various backgrounds,
irrespective of whether they know coding or not, can collaborate on the same
project to construct a pipeline. Experienced users can use programming
languages such as Python, R, Java, and Scala to implement customized
computation logic. The platform allows users to pause the execution of a
workflow to investigate the operator states, and resume the execution at a
later time. The platform can be used by a research community to publish
valuable resources such as data sets, workflows, and ML models to share
their domain-specific knowledge and support reproducibility of scientific
research. The platform also allows users to elastically request computing
resources from public clouds for computationally-intensive tasks.
Texera has been incubating since 2025-04-12.

A graduation discussion has been started at
https://lists.apache.org/thread/5d87do2wl6yxvgt6kxwx6b90p7zb8dro
However, there have been no responses. We welcome comments.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Nothing. We are ready to graduate.
### How has the community developed since the last report?
We have determined to graduate. Please see link above.
### How would you assess the podling's maturity?
Please feel free to add your own commentary.
- [x] Ready for graduation
### Date of last release:
While we have done a formal release, this is more of a content-producing project, rather than releasing software artifacts. The most recent content artifact was an update to the Airflow presentation, which lives at https://training.apache.org/presentations/airflow/index.html#/table-of-contents
### When were the last committers or PPMC members elected?
### Have your mentors been helpful and responsive?
Mentors have been very helpful and responsive.
### Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks?
Yes. Since our name is "Training", which is generic, we use the full "Apache Training", which is unique and protected by the ASF name. We have passed a name search.
