Ingres Roadmap

From Ingres Community Wiki

The Ingres Roadmap is made up of many different projects that extend and enhance the Ingres database, OpenROAD, our Developer Tools (Connectivity) and our Admin Suite. These projects share their resources and are a part of a unified community. For more about what defines one of these projects and sets it apart from other efforts within the community, click on a project below.

Items will be delivered as quickly as possible while adhering to a rigorous design and development methodology. As coding completes, the new feature will be reflected in our Subversion Code Repository and the availability status updated on this page. If you are interested in testing these enhancements, please download the latest version of Ingres Source Code from our code repository. We welcome all feedback either on the design, implementation, or functionality. Please let us know of any bugs you find as you test the new functionality.

This page is where we provide a brief summary on the planned projects for the next release. The page will be continually updated as additional projects are added to a planned release or a new release targeted.
