DB-Engines.com Blog https://db-engines.com/en/blog 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z DB-Engines is today announcing that Snowflake is our DBMS of the Year for 2024, the third time it has claimed the top spot having previously been ranked first place in 2021 and 2022. https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/109 https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/109 2025-01-16T10:00:00Z Tom Russell Do you find yourself bogged down by repetitive database management tasks? Are there processes in your workflow that you believe could be more efficient? If so, Redgate Software is eager to hear your insights.  https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/108 https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/108 2024-09-02T15:30:00Z Tim Dalton A big announcement today from DB-Engines as we announce we have been acquired by Redgate Software, the end-to-end Database DevOps solution provider.   https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/107 https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/107 2024-06-18T12:01:00Z Tom Russell PostgreSQL is the database management system that gained more popularity in our DB-Engines Ranking within the last year than any of the other 417 monitored systems. We thus declare PostgreSQL as the DBMS of the Year 2023. https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/106 https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/106 2024-01-02T14:50:00Z Matthias Gelbmann, Paul Andlinger In the overall architecture, a new "hyper-convergence" concept was proposed, which integrated multiple engines and capabilities to meet the increasingly complex mixed load scenarios and business needs of mixed data type for enterprises. At the mean time, to support subscribers’ increasingly demanding requirements, through the cloud-native "streaming processing engine", streaming computing and database are integrated and innovated from the kernel level, meeting the needs of real-time business analysis, real-time reporting and other types of asynchronous transaction scenarios such as Internet+. https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/105 https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/105 2023-06-22T09:00:00Z Bei Mo, AntDB We have added Vector DBMSs as a new DBMS category. https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/104 https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/104 2023-06-02T18:00:00Z Matthias Gelbmann Snowflake is the database management system that gained more popularity in our DB-Engines Ranking within the last year than any of the other 402 monitored systems. We thus declare Snowflake as the DBMS of the Year 2022. https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/103 https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/103 2023-01-03T15:00:00Z Matthias Gelbmann, Paul Andlinger WebAssembly (Wasm) is a binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine. Wasm enables developers to use existing code from programming languages, such as C, C++ and Rust as part of their application development process. However, Wasm is not just for the web, and today is moving in exciting new directions. For example, one use-case would be to run Wasm code in a database system on the data already stored in the database system — an example of co-locating computation with data. Using Wasm to extend the capabilities of a database system opens up opportunities to develop many new applications. SingleStoreDB supports Wasm through Code Engine and, in this article, we’ll see how to build a Wasm UDF to perform sentiment analysis on data already stored in SingleStoreDB. https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/101 https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/101 2022-10-17T09:00:00Z Akmal Chaudhri, SingleStore DB-Engines.com was launched ten year ago. Quite a few things have changed since then in our portal and in the DBMS industry. https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/99 https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/99 2022-10-13T15:50:00Z Matthias Gelbmann, Paul Andlinger The advent of cloud computing has provided the means to develop a wide range of new products and services. We can build and run applications and perform analytics in the cloud without installing local software. This article will look at two examples of modern systems that can seamlessly integrate with SingleStoreDB for in-cloud analytics: Apache Spark™️ and MindsDB. The notebook file used in this article is available on GitHub. https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/98 https://db-engines.com/en/blog_post/98 2022-06-09T00:00:00Z Akmal Chaudhri, SingleStore
