Set up of a fully functional system requires downloading and installation of the latest packages from our download area or Mercurial (HG) repository. The compatibility table below illustrates the packages in the Mercurial (HG) repository.

Thanks to the GNU autoconf and automake tools, the MonetDB software runs on a wide variety of hardware/software platforms. The MonetDB development team uses many of the platforms available to perform automated nightly regression testing. For more details see The Test Web.
The MonetDB code base -with daily builds available for users preferring living at the edge- evolves quickly. Application developers, however, may tune into the MonetDB mailing list to be warned when a major release has become available, or when detected errors require a patch.
