Shulou(Shulou.com)06/01 Report--

2019 is halfway through, and DB-Engines 's database popularity ranking was released in July, which can be regarded as the half-yearly report of database popularity.

The star product in July is Oracle, whose score has soared by 22 points and 43 points over the same period last year, indicating that Oracle databases have received more attention in the past.

In June, Oracle announced a strategic partnership with Microsoft, which attracted a lot of market attention:

On June 5, Oracle and Microsoft announced the partnership, which mainly consists of several parts. the first is the direct network connection between Microsoft Azure and Oracle Cloud, which will enable faster data sharing between the two platforms. The two vendors say the information will be transmitted at the rate of 10Gb connections per second, which is faster and more reliable than public networks.

The partnership is seen as one of the joint efforts of the two sides to fight AWS, and in the trend of multi-cloud management, Oracle and Microsoft have demonstrated what is "impossible".

The technological changes brought about by this collaboration include:

Seamlessly connects Azure and Oracle Cloud, allowing customers to extend their local data centers to two cloud platforms. Direct connections are first offered in Ashburn (North America) and Azure US East, and will be extended to other regions in the future.

Unified identity and access management to manage resources in Azure and Oracle Cloud through a unified single sign-on experience and automated user configuration.

Support the deployment of custom applications and packaged Oracle applications (E-Business Suite,PeopleSoft, etc.) on Azure, and deployment of Oracle databases (RAC, Exadata, autonomous databases) in Oracle Cloud. The same Oracle application will also run on Azure with Oracle database authentication in the Oracle cloud.

The collaboration support model helps IT organizations deploy these new features.

The Oracle database will continue to be certified to run Azure on a variety of operating systems, including Windows Server and Oracle Linux.

Don't underestimate the power of this cooperation. Oracle still does not provide Oracle database operation authentication to VMware, which has always been a great challenge for Oracle on VMware, and VMware is a close partner of AWS.

This change is even more crucial for Oracle. Microsoft's achievements in the cloud and the vitality inspired by open source openness have been obvious to all, while Oracle has been slow to open up in the cloud, and Thomas Kurian's departure at the beginning of the year is rumored to be due to the lack of recognition of the cloud's open strategy. Now Oracle Cloud has finally opened up the road.

Finally, let's take a look at the very similar trend of the top three on the list. After a decline in the second half of last year, this half of the year achieved a good turnaround and recovered more than half of the lost territory:

Although the database market is changing, it is difficult to shake the position of king.

Starting in the second half of 2019, let's see how the data shine on the stage!
