Apache Cloudberry vs OpenCTI: at a glance
What is Apache Cloudberry?
An MPP warehouse fork grinding through ASF incubation, one release candidate at a time
Apache Cloudberry is a Greenplum-derived MPP data warehouse working through Apache incubation. Its release feed is procedural rather than editorial: each version ships as a tag with download links, checksum instructions and a contributor roll, while the actual changelog lives off-site on cloudberry.apache.org. The 2.1.0-incubating release in May 2026 is the most recent general release, preceded by two release candidates.
What is OpenCTI?
OpenCTI spends a release unblocking queues and hardening upserts
7.260817.0 is a fix release. The most consequential item is malformed STIX messages nacking forever and blocking worker queues indefinitely — a stall in the ingestion path rather than a display bug. Alongside it: upsert clearing an existing createdBy when incoming confidence is higher, draft upserts crashing on existing attack patterns, OTP handling in the stream middleware, and case template relation authorization. Score fields were added to threat actor groups, intrusion sets and malware.

An MPP warehouse fork grinding through ASF incubation, one release candidate at a time
◆ Current state
Apache Cloudberry is a Greenplum-derived MPP data warehouse working through Apache incubation. Its release feed is procedural rather than editorial: each version ships as a tag with download links, checksum instructions and a contributor roll, while the actual changelog lives off-site on cloudberry.apache.org. The 2.1.0-incubating release in May 2026 is the most recent general release, preceded by two release candidates.
◆ Where it's heading
The cadence has shifted from the 2024 weekly-build era to a slower, more formal release train: two or three release candidates, then a general release roughly every eight months. That is the shape of a project optimizing for ASF graduation criteria — reproducible builds, signed artifacts, documented voting — rather than for feature velocity. The contributor list is broad and stable across releases, which suggests a real multi-vendor community rather than a single-sponsor project.
◆ Prediction
Expect a 2.2.0 release-candidate series to open on a similar multi-month cycle. Whether the project exits incubation in that window is not something these release notes indicate either way.

OpenCTI spends a release unblocking queues and hardening upserts
◆ Current state
7.260817.0 is a fix release. The most consequential item is malformed STIX messages nacking forever and blocking worker queues indefinitely — a stall in the ingestion path rather than a display bug. Alongside it: upsert clearing an existing createdBy when incoming confidence is higher, draft upserts crashing on existing attack patterns, OTP handling in the stream middleware, and case template relation authorization. Score fields were added to threat actor groups, intrusion sets and malware.
◆ Where it's heading
The platform's feature energy went into the connector catalog and integrations rework in July, and the releases since have been consolidating: mass operations on relation times, shareable saved searches, and now a pass over ingestion robustness. Adding score to more entity types continues the slow enrichment of the data model that runs underneath the feature work.
◆ Prediction
Given score arriving on three entity types in one release, expect it to keep spreading across the data model, and the queue-blocking class of bug to draw more worker-side hardening.
