Community Edition

The community edition (CE) of CrateDB is a distribution that excludes enterprise modules which are licensed under a more restrictive license. The CE can be used under the terms of the Apache License version 2 without further restrictions.

The Enterprise Features are not available within the CE.

The community edition distribution must be built from source:

$ git clone https://github.com/crate/crate
$ cd crate
$ git submodule update --init
$ [git checkout <tag> ]
$ ./gradlew clean communityEditionDistTar

The built tarball will be available under app/build/distributions.
