Apache Cloudberry ships 2.2.0 after three release candidates.

analyticsmpp-databaseapache-incubatoropen-sourcegreenplum
◆Current state
Apache Cloudberry is an open-source MPP analytics database in the Apache Incubator, derived from Greenplum. 2.2.0-incubating went final on November 3 after rc1 (September 3), rc2 (October 7) and rc3 (October 20). The release entry carries no notes of its own.
◆Where it's heading
The project now ships on a roughly six-month cycle (2.0 in September 2025, 2.1 in May, 2.2 in November), each going through two or three voted candidates. The process is steady; what changed in 2.2 isn't visible in these entries.
◆Prediction
A 2.3.0 rc1 is the next likely tag, probably in early 2027 if the cadence holds.
