As an open-source free software project, MonetDB’s development roadmap is
determined by its community: what features are interesting for the users and
which features the contributing developers want to explore.
Our roadmap is divided into three categories:
- MonetDB releases: contains features, improvements and fixes which we plan
to release in short term;
- Multi-year Development: contains major changes in MonetDB that are
currently under active development. The projects are in various stages of
maturity with no fixed release time period. Once a project has reached
sufficient maturity level, it will be advanced to a candidate of a future
MonetDB release. However, although it rarely happens, it’s possible that a
project gets abandoned after some time.
- Wish List: contains topics we’d love to work on, but currently not under
active development due to limited time. As long as they are still relevant,
we’ll keep them in mind. These topics generally require major development
effort, but sometimes, we get the chance to work on parts of a topic.
Gradually, we might even be able to cover a whole topic.

like to see in the MonetDB roadmap.
