In case you missed it, the yearly review from Andy Pavlo is out talking about Databases in 2025: https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~pavlo/blog/2026/01/2025-databases-retrospective.html

Of particular note, he mentions that in the past year "...most of the database energy and activity is going into #PostgreSQL companies, offerings, projects, and derivative systems."

With #IvorySQL bringing #Oracle features to #Postgres, it'll be interesting to see how the database ecosystem changes further this year.
