Top 5 Most Acceptable Open Source Databases Of the World
Introduction • The volumes of data are ever increasing. With a lot of data generated each minute on social media and networking sites and through extensive analyses and studies, the internet is overloaded. • This rising volume of data has presented a novel challenge to us- that of its management, storage, and handling. • Open-source databases have evolved to be sought-after database management systems today, with strong features in place that result in efficient data management and quick retrieval capabilities. • Today, we see an overview of the best Open-source database management software that are currently leading with their popularity and widespread appeal.
MongoDB • MongoDB is the most popular open-source database management system. • The software platform arrived in the mid-2000s under the class of NoSQL database management systems. • The open-source software did away with the method of storing data in rows and columns in a database system and stored data in JSON like structures that had dynamics schema, and termed the structure BSON later. • MongoDB is written in C++ and boasts of scores of features like- storing records in the form of documents and storing data corresponding to data types used in most programming languages, support for polymorphism through a dynamic schema, complete index support on all fields, etc.
MySQL • While MongoDB is the most trending choice, MySQL is the one that has been around for the longest- about 30 years, and has evolved a lot since its inception. • Scores of GUI and command-line tools are used now to access and manage MySQL through command-line or GUI tools. • MySQL is a popular choice for the PHP programming languages developers who work to build web applications using Relational Database Management Systems. • The database management software is available in two different editions- the open source MySQL community edition and an enterprise edition. • The enterprise edition gets better support and more frequent updates.
PostgreSQL • PostgreSQL powers magnificent organizations like Fujitsu, Cisco, and ADP. • The database management software which is nor popular nor widespread has a liberal open-source license, that permits the users of the software to freely modify the code to fit their company's specific needs and requirements. • PostgreSQL is an object-oriented RDBMS that promotes extensible and standard compliance. • Some of the features of the platform include support for SQL data types, multi-version concurrency control, transaction reliability through ACID concept, etc.
Cassandra • This database management system was initially java web development company by the engineers at Facebook to power the search functionality of the social media giant. • Later, the software was made open-source. • Cassandra is a distributed database management system that handles the data that is spread across a large number of devices in a cluster formation. • Cassandra considers scalability and performance to be of high importance. • Cassandra powers the leading web infrastructure companies like Twitter, Apple, and Netflix. • Some of the standout features of the platform include decentralization of data, replication of multiple data centres, and a Cassandra Query Language (CQL), an alternative to SQL that resembles the latter.
CounchDB • Like MongoDB, CouchDB also uses the same file notation format in its database management features- the JSON format. Some large corporations that rely on the database system are- BBC, Canonical, and Sophos. • Some of its unique features include- offline editing, distributed architecture for data replication and security, ACID semantics compliance, etc.
