Postgres-compatible MPP
The full Apache Cloudberry (Incubating) query engine: share-nothing parallelism, columnar execution, PostgreSQL wire protocol. Every driver that speaks Postgres, speaks SynxDB CE.
Product · SynxDB CE, Community Edition
Apache Cloudberry (Incubating), pre-built. Free, open, deployable.
SynxDB CE is the free Community Edition of Apache Cloudberry (Incubating), pre-built RPM and DEB packages instead of source tarballs.
What it is
From source tarball to deployable package.
Apache Cloudberry (Incubating) is a Postgres-compatible MPP analytical database with an active community (source on GitHub). Like many Apache projects, its official releases are source tarballs, exactly right for ASF governance, but leaving a gap for teams who want to install and run it, not build it.
SynxDB CE closes that gap. We build Apache Cloudberry from source, package it for each supported platform, and verify that all runtime dependencies resolve from standard OS repositories. No third-party package sources, no build toolchain required, see supported platforms below.
Supported platforms
Two platforms. Tested.
Currently shipping SynxDB CE 2.1.0, RPM for Rocky Linux 9 / RHEL 9, DEB for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Each package's dependencies resolve entirely from standard OS repositories.
| Distribution | Package | Version |
|---|---|---|
| Rocky Linux 9 / RHEL 9 | RPM | 2.1.0 |
| Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (Jammy) | DEB | 2.1.0 |
Installation walkthrough →
Step-by-step: download, GPG signature verification, then dnf install on Rocky 9 / RHEL 9 or apt install on Ubuntu 22.04.
What's inside
The full Cloudberry engine. Packaged to run.
Pre-built, pre-tested binaries
We build Apache Cloudberry from source for each supported platform and verify the result. No compiler, no build dependencies, no hours of build time on your end.
Standard OS dependencies
All runtime dependencies resolve from standard Rocky Linux / RHEL and Ubuntu repositories. No third-party package sources required, a fresh OS install with internet access is all you need.
Apache Cloudberry feature parity
Tracks upstream closely. What the community ships is what you get.
CE vs upstream
Same engine. Shipped differently.
Apache Cloudberry (Incubating) releases source tarballs, exactly what the ASF charter requires. SynxDB CE adds the build, packaging, and testing on top so you can install and run without becoming a release engineer. Both are Apache-2.0 open source.

CE vs SynxDB Cloud
Self-managed or managed. Same family.
CE is the community edition you run yourself, free forever. SynxDB Cloud is our managed, commercial offering on AWS. Pick the one that fits your team today; moving between them is a migration, not a rewrite.
SynxDB CE (free, self-managed)
- Install on your own hardware or VMs
- Single-node or self-managed cluster

SynxDB Cloud (commercial, managed)

Apache Cloudberry is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
