Race Between Oracle as No. 1 Database and MySQL

Not only in every sports, audition, and career in life competition always exist, but it is also present in every database system. Oracle is considered as the No. 1 database, but the MySQL will never let itself left behind with other database especially to the Oracle. According to the DB-Engines site which tracked and determined the most popular database, it currently ranked Oracle at the top slot which also goes along with MySQL and Microsoft SQL Server. Meanwhile, the Oracle's ranking fell down yearly as it started from 2012 along with SQL Server's. In regard with this, the DB-Engines charts used in ranking never specified it through numbers of downloads, installation and other direct metrics, however it is determined through analyzing the trend related data including what is mention in the websites, technical discussion as well as job posting gathered by the system, and the result of this is updated per month. Though Oracle is considered as the top database, meanwhile MySQL is really possible to overlap with the oracle for the reason that it is the only open source database solution. Because MySQL contained the open source database solution, however it will be the losing ground to open source competition for Oracle.
