Download Citus Open Source

You can download & install Citus open source packages for both single-node clusters—often used to try out Citus for the first time—or for multi-node clusters. The steps below will get you started and then send you to Citus Docs for more instructions on configuring the Citus cluster.

And if you’re looking for Citus in the cloud—you can try Citus on Azure.

  • Single-Machine Cluster
