Cloudberry, last I checked, took their snapshot of all the Greenplum utilities way before the repos got archived and development went private. The backup/restore, DR, Upgrade, and other such seem to leave a lot on the table. I haven't checked in a bit, it's possible they've picked back up some of that progress.

You're completely right, I had the wrong PG version in my memory. Embarrassing, thanks for catching that.

All the Greenplum utilities you mentioned here are also open-sourced and available for Cloudberry, but some of them are not in the main repo of Apache Cloudberry (This is more a matter of adhering to the Apache Software Foundation's regulations than a technical limitation).

Here is the unofficial roadmap of Cloudberry:

1. Continuously upgrading the PostgreSQL core version, maintaining compatibility with Greenplum Database, and strengthening the product's stability. 2. End-to-end performance optimization to support near real-time analytics, including streaming ingestion, vectorized batch processing, JIT compilation, incremental materialized views, PAX storage format, etc. 3. Supporting lakehouse applications by fully integrating open data lake table formats represented by Apache Iceberg, Hudi, and Delta Lake. 4. Gradually transforming Cloudberry Database into a data foundation supporting AI/ML applications, based on Directory Table, pgvector, and PostgresML.
