Which Databases Dominated March 2019 Rankings? MySQL and Oracle Surge

In the March 2019 Database Popularity Ranking, the top three databases saw significant score increases.

Oracle rose by 15.12 points, MySQL surged 30.96 points, and SQL Server gained 7.79 points.

The release of Oracle Database 19c in February 2019 is credited for Oracle's jump.

MySQL, now in second place, achieved its highest score in seven months, driven by a strong ecosystem and the recent MariaDB user conference; MariaDB also continued strong growth.

PostgreSQL’s score dropped by 3.75 points, the first decline in six months.

Overall, MySQL was the biggest monthly winner in the March ranking.
