15 futuristic databases you’ve never heard of

Let's take a look at the top 15 new databases that could disrupt software development in the future. Many new serverless databases leverage tools like Postgres and MySQL, while others attempt build entirely new systems from scratch.

One thing I hate about developer tools is developers love making developer tools so there's way too many choices and I get choice paralysis.

"For your next failed side project" - LOL I felt that one.

I'm here after 12 seconds. You're welcome, Fireship.

[hansiboy]

I would have liked you to include some time series optimized databases. They are very essential for IoT projects

I am currently writing master thesis evaluating the extension Citus that distribute postgresql very efficiently and transparently, but still reusing most of the postgresql code. Definitely interesting as it also supports a lot of extensions, which is also a great property of postgresql.

I am watching again this material 5 months later and still a lot of hints to check over. Thanks for your work - kind of IT tech wikipedia

I'd love to see a video on full text search engine "databases". Things like Elasticsearch, Typesense, algolia, and more. I have a project using Typesense as a full text search engine, but its not feasible for medium-size amateur projects considering its in-memory approach. I'm not sure what to go with.

Keep up the good work!

minddb is especially helpful to ai/ml researchers and fine-tuners because it's easier to retrieve the training data and then use the training data with a logical "sql" like syntax.

AGE (A Graph Extension) for Postgres seems similar to EdgeDB. Using Cypher to query the graph, but iirc you can mix sql and cypher together to get the best of your existing model with graph on top

[markobudiselic]

Thanks Fireship for featuring Memgraph!! Streaming graphs FTW

Now I don't watch your videos for software development purposes, at this point I just enjoy your memes.

JS: There is a new framework seems like every day!
DB: Hold my bear!

[danieldosen]

Your well-produced videos help increase the speed in which my failed-side-projects can ramp up.

[i_dont_likevodka]

wow. A few hours ago I was searching for a cool new db to use in my own project. And bam! This video released!

[WillJackDo]

Dude, you're klillin' it. So happy for you.

[sohrobby]

This was awesome thanks for putting it together.

[husseinkizz]

Man your a learning machine or an alien, the way you skeem through all that and teach it to us like you made it :)
