Hey Product Hunt 😸
I’m excited to share this year’s State of Databases report.
The Basedash team created the State of Databases last year when we realized there was no definitive survey of database tech. This surprised us since databases power basically every app, and because there are so many great database products and related tooling released each year.
It’s only our second time running the survey, so I’m excited to hear what you think. There’s a lot we improved based on the feedback we got on last year’s report. More specifically, we added a lot more tools and collected granular data around usage and favorability. We also compiled an app leaderboard that takes a number of ratings into account, rather than mere usage.
Big thanks to partners Prisma, Timescale, Airplane, PlanetScale, SingleStore and Weaviate, who helped spread the word about this year’s survey.
Some interesting stats from this year:
- The vast majority of developers prefer SQL (54%) to NoSQL (6%)
- Postgres (4.49) just barely inched out Planetscale (4.48)
- Newcomer Drizzle (4.11) neck-and-neck with Prisma (4.06)
Is there anything you were surprised about? Something you saw coming? And what can we improve for next year’s edition? I’d love to hear from you.
Always fun to look through the results. I like how this year's addition of the survey has individual tool pages, as well as the ability to compare two tools with each other!
Been using the service for a while and I'm very glad I bumped into it someday. The only thing I didn't like is its visual design though it's not weak. Some fixes and it's very good
