Database Systems
This data-forward, analytics-driven world would be lost without its database and data storage solutions. As more organizations continue to transition their software to cloud-based systems, the growing demand for database innovation and enhancements has climbed to novel heights. We are upon a new era of the "Modern Database," where databases must both store data and ensure that data is prepped and primed securely for insights and analytics, integrity and quality, and microservices and cloud-based architectures.In our 2023 Database Systems Trend Report, we explore these database trends, assess current strategies and challenges, and provide forward-looking assessments of the database technologies most commonly used today. Further, readers will find insightful articles — written by several of our very own DZone Community experts — that cover hand-selected topics, including what "good" database design is, database monitoring and observability, and how to navigate the realm of cloud databases.
Database Systems
Every modern application and organization collects data. With that, there is a constant demand for database systems to expand, scale, and take on more responsibilities. Database architectures have become more complex, and as a result, there are more implementation choices. An effective database management system allows for quick access to database queries, and an organization can efficiently make informed decisions. So how does one effectively scale a database system and not sacrifice its quality?Our Database Systems Trend Report offers answers to this question by providing industry insights into database management selection and evaluation criteria. It also explores database management patterns for microservices, relational database migration strategies, time series compression algorithms and their applications, advice for the best data governing practices, and more. The goal of this report is to set up organizations for scaling success.
