2020: Global DBMS market volume increased by 11% to $68 billion
The volume of the world market for database management systems (DBMS) in 2020 grew by 11% - to $68 billion from $61 billion in 2019. This is evidenced by the data of SH Capital, released in November 2021. In their calculation, analysts refer to IDC data .
According to experts, the key feature of the market was an avalanche-like increase in data requirements. With an average increase in data collection of 25-30% per year, the number of transactions performed with data more than doubles annually.
The study notes that if before the universal way to solve problems related to performance was simply the addition of new servers, then by 2020 the amount of necessary "iron" became so large that it is already economically unprofitable, and in order to meet increasingly increasing customer requirements and remain cost-effective, companies begin to look for solutions based on the quality of software, and not on "iron."
According to Ilya Anikin, founder and partner of SH Capital, in the context of the crisis caused by the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, the DBMS market tended to suspend the launch of new projects and reduce capital expenditures. Therefore, companies using cloud solutions are increasing their presence in the clouds. In view of this, growth was observed in the cloud segments of the DBMS market. The pandemic also spurred the growth of the segment of object DBMS, whose vendors have a strong position in health care, he added.
The study emphasizes the importance for the global DBMS market of Chinese developments. In particular, analysts point out that in China, successes in the development and implementation of 5G, the use of artificial intelligence for networks, as well as the development of a hybrid and public cloud generate a growing amount of data that requires fast and efficient DBMS. Local DBMS manufacturers are gradually gaining fame outside China. The most famous are SequoiaDB and TiDB belonging to the class of relational DBMS, but there are also significant products in the class NoSQL, for example, Nebula Graph.
According to experts, more than 80% of the DBMS market falls on relational systems, and this segment grows slightly less quickly than the entire market. This is affected by inertia due to the significant volume achieved, and the relative success of the absorption of other types of DBMS by relational DBMS, in particular, conditional support for other data models and partial elimination of the reasons that led to the emergence of these models.
The report also mentions the Russian market, one of the drivers of which is import substitution. Import substitution requirements prevent the use of full-fledged foreign DBaaS in Russia and create preferences in the domestic market for domestic products. At the same time, the assortment of DBaaS services of Russian cloud providers is not inferior to that of world services. The most famous DBMS created by immigrants from the Russian Federation are memSQL, Virtuozzo and Nitrosbase.
 | As in many segments of the IT market, DBMS created by Russian developers are among the best in the world. New solutions are emerging, improving and entering international markets already existing database management systems, "says Ilya Anikin. - One of the most promising areas in which the market is developing today is the creation of a hyperconvergent infrastructure, that is, a horizontally scalable software-defined infrastructure that combines the main data management services based on standard servers with drives.[1] |  |
2019: Q2 Cloud DBMS Market Leaders
If you look at the latest Forrester Wave, dedicated to the cloud DBMS market, among the "leaders" and their "strong pursuers" are familiar all faces: Oracle, Microsoft, IBM, SAP. With which, not without success, purely cloud vendors compete. There is a place in the clouds and a free DBMS (although, of course, their "free" is even more conditional than when placed in a corporate data center) - a MongoDB that was even able to become a leader according to Gartner, Redis ("pursuer") popular in Russia PostreSQL and some others.
2018: Market growth by 18.4% to $46 billion - Gartner
In 2018, the world market for database management systems (DBMS) reached $46 billion, an increase of 18.4% compared to 2017 largely due to cloud projects. Such data at the end of June 2019 was published in the analytical company Gartner.
According to experts, cloud solutions made the main contribution (about 68%) to this rise, and Microsoft and Amazon Web Services (AWS) distinguished themselves among manufacturers, which accounted for 75.5% of market growth.
The study showed an increasing trend of DBMS transition to the cloud. It is expected that by 2022, approximately 75% of systems will be deployed or migrated to the cloud platform, and only 5% of solutions migrate in the opposite direction - from the cloud to the local infrastructure.
Experts attribute this trend to the increasing popularity of the SaaS business model (software as a service), as well as the practical significance of using the DBMS for analytical tasks. Gartner says customers are deploying new applications and moving existing resources to the cloud at exponentially increasing speed.
Companies are increasingly using cloud services for analytics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, data lake, and information storage.
According to analysts, in some cases, cloud services may be more expensive than traditional software, but the former provide the following undeniable advantages: eliminating the need for infrastructure management and the ability to scale processes more easily. In addition, most often the cloud is safer, added to Gartner.
Although in 2018 the costs of local DBMS from, Oracle Microsoft, IBM and other vendors increased, positive dynamics were achieved not due to new implementations, but thanks to a forced update. software Companies are forced to install new versions and additions to products to avoid risks, researchers say.
Most new DBMS projects are launched in the cloud. Under these conditions, infrastructure providers for cloud services and services that are provided on its basis become a new platform for data management.
Gartner analyst Adam Ronthal says that almost all innovations in the database management system market are developing in the cloud. Therefore, anyone who wants to take advantage of the latest developments should be present in this environment.
| | They [innovation] appear only in the cloud or at least in the first place there. There are more and more innovations that will never be in a local environment, even if the manufacturer has local products, "Rontal said. | |
Cloud service providers form ecosystems around themselves, offering not only the services themselves, but also opportunities to organize interaction between them and with competing products.
In the category of local DBMS, the approach is different: here, individual products often perform several tasks, but rarely offer built-in mechanisms for integrating with other software in a local environment.
| | All this suggests that the dominant position of the infrastructure of cloud providers, their own offerings and third-party solutions based on them is guaranteed, "said Donald Feinberg, vice president of research at Gartner. | |
At the end of June 2019, Gartner released the results of a survey that showed that 81% of companies using public cloud services choose at least one supplier.[2]
2017:
Gartner Magic Quadrant: DBMS Market Leaders
In November 2017, the analytical company Gartner presented the results of a study of the global market for database management systems (DBMS). More specifically, the so-called operational DBMSs (OPDBMS) were considered, which are focused on supporting a wide range of enterprise-wide transactional applications such as ERP, CRM, the Internet of Things, directory and event management.
The leaders of the market in question in Gartner were named companies, Microsoft,, and Oracle Amazon Web Services (AWS). SAP IBM Judging by the "magic quadrant," Microsoft has higher positions, offering such flagship products as. SQL Server DBMS Azure SQL Database
According to experts, Microsoft's revenue from OPDBMS sales is growing faster than the market. The company received the highest praise from customers for their overall experience, satisfaction of customer needs, value for money, experience in negotiation, integration and deployment of projects, maintenance and support.
Microsoft has increased its competitive level by launching free Developer Edition of SQL Server and Database Migration Service tools to migrate SQL Server and Oracle databases to Azure SQL Database.
Despite these strengths of SQL Server, many corporate customers still do not consider this DBMS suitable for critical applications, and a number of Microsoft customers are unhappy with the licensing scheme for this corporation product. Microsoft is finding it increasingly difficult to retain and attract customers as rival Google and Amazon offer more attractive prices for their products.
Among the benefits of Oracle in the market, analysts attributed the correct strategy for updating the cloud product portfolio, supporting compatibility with old solutions (three quarters of Oracle customers have been working with Oracle Database for more than 10 years) and high product satisfaction rates.
Experts considered the disadvantages of Oracle to be licensing difficulties and problems related to customer support and the release of updates. To simplify the installation of patches, the vendor began releasing them once a quarter.
To attract customers to its cloud services, Oracle has increased the number of processor licenses required to run the company's software in competing cloud infrastructures. This approach actually doubled the cost of using Oracle products. In addition, the company limited the operation of some functions for Oracle Cloud and local engineering systems.
Speaking about IBM, Gartner analysts pointed to the rich functionality (including cloud and hybrid capabilities) that the company's OPDBMS products have, as well as the active use of popular open source solutions (Hadoop, Kafka, Parquet, Spark, etc.) and backup and recovery functions in/out Swift and AWS S3. The global presence of the corporation also plays to the benefit of IBM.
However, according to the study, IBM's revenue and share in the operating DBMS market has been declining for several years. A number of customers interviewed by Gartner indicated difficulties with pricing and licensing.
In addition, as experts note , the DB2 database loses to most competitors in terms of transaction processing speed, data loading (ingestion) and their automatic distribution. IBM did a great job in simplifying the perception of the brand in the market (in particular, DB2 renamed Db2), but customers apparently did not see these changes or were indifferent to them.[3]
The balance of power in the DBMS market can change dramatically - IDG
According to an IDG survey, 87% of IT managers in North America are trying to reduce database management costs, and 35% of them have implemented or are considering an alternative to the products of well-known database providers. This was announced on September 20, 2017 in the company TmaxSoft.
The survey showed that the vast majority of IT managers are trying to reduce significant database management costs, and many of them are not limited to searching with traditional solutions. As a result, as the developer of innovative software for TmaxSoft enterprises noted, the alignment of forces in the corporate database market may change greatly in the near future due to vendors offering a fundamentally different approach to database technologies, pricing and licensing.
According to Joshua Yulish, president and chief executive of the North American branch of TmaxSoft, many CIO and IT executives are trying to focus all their resources on digital transformation and adapt their companies to the era of cloud computing, analytics-based forecasting and the Internet of Things. Against this background, the high cost of managing traditional databases becomes a major problem.
| | Customers find it difficult to understand the confusing licensing and pricing conditions of these solutions. In addition, they often use outdated technologies, so their use leads to a lot of work time and money, "explained Joshua Yulish. - This distracts IT departments from addressing the overriding challenge of innovation, and they are forced to maintain a constant readiness to audit any software used, pay for infrastructure that cannot be used due to licensing restrictions, or spend time integrating new technologies into these databases. No wonder one in three IT managers is looking for an alternative to traditional databases. | |
According to the President of TmaxSoft, the market of corporate databases has already developed the necessary conditions for fundamental changes: the dominant players are satisfied with the current situation and do not want to change anything, customers are on the needle of expensive and time-consuming solutions, and the dynamic technological landscape has changed customer priorities and technical capabilities of products. Thus, other players have a good chance to solve these problems with the help of innovation.
About the study
A study of organizations' approach to database management was conducted by TmaxSoft and IBM in partnership with IDG Research. The survey was attended by 119 heads of IT departments of North American companies from different industries and different turnover.

DBMS for Data Warehouses
The Storage DBMS market sector is represented by vendors supplying data warehouse products and tools for the required operational management.
As part of the Magic Quadrant study, DBMS refers to a set of software that implements the support and management of a logical database or databases in the repository. Data warehouse DBMS are systems that? in addition to supporting a relational data model (supporting new data structures and types such as materialized views, XML, and metadata access to content), support data access for independent web applications, software, contain workload isolation mechanisms, and manage various end-user access parameters within a single database instance.
This market is specific to the DBMS used as a platform for data warehouses. It is important to note that the DBMS cannot be used as a data store. Rather, data warehouses are deployed on the DBMS platform. Data warehousing architecture often involves different data designs and repositories. Gartner emphasizes: the definition of this market is volatile, and over time DBMSs will become only part of the overall definition of the market, as logical data warehouses (LDW) continue to grow, develop and implement.
A data warehouse is a database in which two or more heterogeneous data sources can be combined into an integrated information management strategy over time. Its logical design includes the flexibility of introducing additional disparate data without significant changes to the existing object representation. Currently, it is assumed that data warehouse DBMSs will help coordinate virtualization strategies, such as a distributed and/or computational approach, such as MapReduce, to process one aspect in a situation with large or extreme data.
Market Volume
In 2011, the realities and laws of the stagnant world economy became more clear, and participants in almost all markets began to make efforts to use the existing, and increasingly growing, volumes of data as means to increase the profitability of business.
In 2010, revenues in the relational DBMS market grew by almost 10% compared to 2009 and reached $20.7 billion. Among the many different factors that influence the growth of the DBMS market, only one relates to the deployment of data warehouses that support analytics. Nevertheless, the combination of consumer-oriented data management systems, coupled with analytics also tuned to the consumer, gives serious reason to believe that it was the deployment of data warehouses that was a significant factor in the growth of the market in 2011.
Between September 2010 and November 2011, when the Gartner study was conducted, there was an increase in requests for the creation of logical data warehouses from almost zero to about 15%. Gartner expects interest in a hybrid logical storage environment (LDW) to grow faster. However, the number of real implementations of fully deployed LDWs (if any) in the market will be very small. And so it will be until the end of 2012.

Leading players
According to Gartner's Magic Quadrant, Teradata, Oracle, IBM, EMC/Greenplum, Sybase, and Microsoft are the leaders in the data warehouse DBMS market.
The company has a 30-year history in the data warehouse supply market in combination with prepared equipment and specialized analytics database software. Terata has more than 1 thousand customer organizations around the world.
Terata products include data mining solutions, departmental data discovery solutions, and enterprise solutions. Its portfolio includes cloud solutions and big data products. Aster Data has added new capabilities to the Terata product line (such as MapReduce, unstructured data, and graphical analysis).
In 2010, Sybase was acquired by SAP. The Gartner quadrant describes the SAP Sybase IQ DBMS, which became the first column DBMS. It is the main data store of the SAP/Sybase DBMS. Sybase has thousands of Sybase IQ customers worldwide.
Oracle offers a wide range of products that allow customers to choose when designing storage, use a certified configuration, or purchase a device that is ready to configure storage and load. In addition to DBMS and certified configurations, Oracle offers three branded products: Exadata Oracle Exata X2-2 for data warehouses and mixed workloads, Oracle Exata X2-8 for cloud solutions Oracle Exadata Storage Expansion Rack X2-2 , and to increase storage capacity. Oracle reports more than 300 thousand customers worldwide.
IBM offers both stand-alone DBMS and storage devices. Currently, the IBM Smart Analytics System (ISAS) family and the Netezza brand are on the market. IBM datastore software - InfoSphere Warehouse is available for Unix, Linux, Windows, and z/OS. IBM has thousands of database clients worldwide and more than 500 clients per device (combination of Netezza and ISAS).
Greenplum is part of EMC's Data Products division, which develops massively parallel architecture (MPP) database stores running on Linux and Unix. The product is implemented in the form of a device or autonomous DBMS. The company has more than 400 customers in the world.
Microsoft continues to sell its SQL Server 2008 DBMS (Release 2) Business Data Warehouse and Fast Track Data Warehouse solutions to provide data storage for customers who do not need a massively parallel DBMS. Microsoft released its own mass-parallel architecture data warehouse device, SQL Server 2008 R2 Parallel Data Warehouse (Microsoft), in November 2010.
Only 1010data was included in the applicants in this quadrant.
1010data was created 11 years ago as a provider of a managed data warehouse service with an integrated DBMS and a business intelligence (BI) solution for the financial sector. Recently, its solutions have been used in the retail/consumer packaged goods (CPG) sector. 1010data can place its solutions using the software-as-a-service model (SaaS) or support a managed solution at the client site. 1010data has about 200 customers.
The sector of visionary players is represented by Vertica
Vertica is a company within HP. Offers a fully integrated column DBMS with analytics functionality and a range of optional high performance and availability features. Growing up on the basis of research originally done at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the company was acquired by HP. The transaction closed in May 2011. Vertica has more than 500 direct and OEM clients. HP also offers a version of the DBMS as part of the device.
Among the niche participants in the company's magic quadrant: ParAccel, Kognito, SAND Technology, Infobright, Actian and Exasol.
Data warehouses become a central element for companies in managing information and analytics, an indicator of their superiority in comparison with partners and competitors. Technical solutions remain popular, and more data warehouses are part of hardware implementations. However, the market has not yet determined an acceptable threshold for these devices, and Gartner also points to their lack of "flexibility."
In addition, the hardware market (even if you include all Terata, Exata, IBM/Netezza and other vendors) after 30 years of Terata in the market, seven years - Netezza and three years of Oracle Exata, still accounts for less than 15% of the delivered devices in the total data storage market. Given that most large data warehouses undergo major audits and upgrades between 5 and 7 years of their lifecycle, this period shows that there is likely to be an increase in the number of implementations of this equipment in 2012 and 2013.
2011
On December 21, IDC published the results of a market study of data and database integration software, Worldwide Semiannual Database and Data Integration Software Tracker, for the first half of 2011. The study covered more than 100 leading producers from 49 countries.
According to Wilvin Chee, IDC Assistant Vice President of Software Market Research, the market for data and database integration software is expected to grow by 11.6% in 2011 compared to the same period last year, and in absolute terms, the market volume will reach $35.5 billion. "While the relational database management software market should grow in accordance with the previous period, the largest growth will be noticeable in the database development and management tools (DDMT) market sector, where annual growth is expected to be more than 300%," the report says.
In the DDMT sector, countries such as Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, Czech Republic, Finland, Germany, India, Norway, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland and the USA demonstrate strong growth in 2011. In the DBMS development segment, significant growth is additionally expected in Chile, Indonesia, Israel, New Zealand, Poland, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Singapore and the UAE.
According to Carl Olofson, IDC vice president, enterprises need to collect and process high-quality, reliable data in order to further use it in decision-making systems. "This has led to a serious growth in the market for database management systems, information quality, dynamic data movement and other software supporting development in the field of master data management (MDM), information management and enterprise data integration," the analyst said.
During the first half of 2011, the top three vendors - Oracle, IBM, and Microsoft - significantly strengthened their position. Of the total, the share increased by 2% compared to the previous year. In the first half of 2011, these three suppliers occupied 75% of the global market. Among them, Oracle is ahead of market growth as a whole by 22.4% compared to the same period last year.
Informatica, along with Oracle and HP, improved revenue growth among top vendors. HP has been showing steady growth above the market average over the past few half-years and has generated revenues above $100 million for the first time in six months. The share of Informatica is steadily increasing amid double-digit revenue growth.
