PostgreSQL is the DBMS of the Year 2023
published on 2024/01/03
PostgreSQL is our DBMS of the Year for the fourth time, after winning already three titles between 2017 and 2020. Almost 35 years ago, Postgres, as it was called back then, was initially released. Quite a lot has changed since then, and this is actually the big success factor of PostgreSQL: a high pace of steady improvements, that keep the system at the forefront of DBMS technology, while providing a reliable and stable platform at the same time. PostgreSQL 16, released in September 2023, saw further performance improvements and more replication options among others. All of that makes PostgreSQL one of the most successful open source projects ever.
PostgreSQL is fantastic and it is our first choice for RDBMS.
