# Greenplum Demo

![](/files/yqjQ2zS8yovXnTwVx4Wc)

Welcome to VLDB's Greenplum Database (GPDB) demo.

VLDB have been big fans of GPDB for a very long time. We've created hundreds of GPDB clusters on all manner of platforms - we know just how frustrating it can be to get started with GPDB.

This demo version of GPDB aims to provide a free, lightweight, easy-to-use version of GPDB. Consider it a 'toe in the water' to the world of open source Massively Parallel Processing (MPP) analytics enabled by GPDB.

There are two options available for this GPDB Demo as listed below:

1. Containers using Docker (Only available for Windows)
2. VM using VMware (Available for Mac and Windows)
