NoSQL LinkedIn Skills Index – June 2014

There isn’t a great deal of movement in the June update to our NoSQL LinkedIn Skills Index, which tracks mentions of NoSQL database in NoSQL member profiles. At the tail-end of the list FoundationDB jumped a place above InfiniteGraph and can be expected to gain another place on Sparksee in the next quarter, but otherwise it’s very much ‘as you were’.

Q3 could also see OrientDB overtake Aerospike, unless the recent release of Aerospike as open source his an immediate impact on interest levels. FoundationDB was among those with the fastest growth rates in Q2 at 35.0%, although the faster growth came from ArangoDB (48.0%) followed by RethinkDB (36.6%), Titan (27.1%) and Couchbase (18.9%).

Once again MongoDB was the most popular NoSQL database by a considerable margin, representing 49% of all LinkedIn member profiles mentioning a NoSQL project.

Of course, we would also note that this is not meant to be a comprehensive analysis, but rather a snapshot of one particular data source.

NoSQL LinkedIn Skills Index – March 2014

The latest version of our NoSQL LinkedIn Skills Index shows the continued strength of MongoDB, as the document database increased its share back to 49% of all mentions of NoSQL databases in Q1.

q1_donut

We were surprised to find MongoDB’s proportion of the Index (based on the number of LinkedIn member profiles mentioning each of the NoSQL projects) actually declined in the previous quarter: from 49% to 48%. The Q1 results suggest that was just a blip.

We had wondered whether Couchbase’s leap of two places in our previous update might also be a blip, but in fact Couchbase retained seventh spot in Q1 and there were no changes of position within the top ten this quarter.

q1-chart

Outside the top ten, Titan gained a place on Hypertable, as expected, while RethinkDB leapfrogged AllegroGraph, thanks to recording the third fastest growth (34.94%) in the quarter. The fastest climber, in terms of mentions, was FoundationDB (42.86%), followed by ArangoDB (38.89%). DynamoDB (28.03%) and Titan (26.88%) complete the list of the top five fastest climbers.

Of course, we would also note that this is not meant to be a comprehensive analysis, but rather a snapshot of one particular data source.
