Overview of leading DBMS
DBMS platforms offer developers versatile options for web, enterprise, and cloud-based applications.
MySQL
MySQL is a relational database management system that has been made open-source by the MySQL development project. Under the GNU General Public License terms and a variety of proprietary agreements, this source code is now openly available.
PostgreSQL
PostgreSQL works as an object-relational database management system which primarily works to store data securely and return it when requests come throughout from other software applications. In PostgreSQL, the emphasis is on extensibility and standards compliance.
Teradata
It is highly sophisticated enterprise database system which supports various latest features such as highavailability to cloud services to hot backups of data. It is recommended for development of large data warehouse supporting business intelligence (BI) queries and answer of business questions.
MSSQL
The Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system which mainly functions to store and retrieve data at the request of other software applications. These other applications may be running on the same computer or on other computers across networks, which can include the internet.
Oracle
Oracle Database is a database management system which is object-relational. You may have seen it referred to as “Oracle” or “Oracle RDBMS”.
MongoDB
MongoDB is a cross-platform and documentoriented database program which is open-source and available for free. Published under a combination of the Apache License and the GNU Affero General Public License, MongoDB is a NoSQL database program that uses JSON-like documents with schemas.
Selecting the right DBMS
Ensure the database aligns with your application's requirements, scalability needs, and performance expectations.
Data Model
Understand whether your application requires a relational (SQL) or non-relational (NoSQL) data model based on the complexity and structure of the data it will handle.
Read/Write Throughput
Evaluate the expected read/write operations per second and choose a DBMS that can handle your application’s load efficiently.
Scalability
Assess whether the DBMS can scale horizontally (adding more nodes) or vertically (upgrading existing hardware) to meet future growth.
JDBC Support
Ensure the DBMS offers a JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) driver for seamless integration with Java applications.
ORM Compatibility
Check compatibility with Java frameworks and Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) tools like Hibernate, JPA (Java Persistence API), or Spring Data, which can simplify database operations.
Security Features
Look for DBMSs that provide robust security mechanisms for controlling access and performing operations on the database.
Data Encryption
Consider databases that offer data encryption at rest and in transit to protect sensitive information.
Backup and Recovery
Evaluate the ease and efficiency of the backup and recovery processes, ensuring data integrity and minimal loss in case of failures.
Open Source vs. Commercial
Decide between open-source databases, which can be more cost-effective and flexible, and commercial databases, which might offer advanced features and dedicated support.
Community Support
Assess the quality and responsiveness of vendor support, including the availability of professional services and technical assistance.
Proof of Concept
Implementing a small-scale prototype with your shortlisted DBMS can reveal practical insights into integration issues, performance, and the overall compatibility with your Java application.
