September 2023 DB-Engines Database Popularity Rankings Overview

Source: OSC Open Source Community (ID: oschina2013) reports the September update of the DB-Engines database popularity ranking.

The ranking shows Oracle dropped 22.54 points, the largest decline among databases, while MySQL and MongoDB saw notable increases.

Top 10 relational databases, key‑value stores, document databases, time‑series databases, and graph databases are listed with their respective rankings (images omitted for brevity).

DB-Engines calculates popularity monthly using five indicators: keyword search volume on Google and Bing, Google Trends search volume, job postings on Indeed, LinkedIn profile mentions, and related questions and followers on Stack Overflow.

The analysis aims to provide technical direction references for database professionals, emphasizing that rankings do not reflect technical superiority or market share, and the choice of technology should align with business needs.
