What's your database infra in 2025? (2 min survey)
2 gszundi 1 8/28/2025, 7:18:16 PM survey.springtail.io ↗
Most database reports focus on rankings and popularity. We wanted to dig deeper into how databases are actually used in production: e.g. read replication, sharding, workload mix, deployment models.
The survey is short (~90 seconds) and anonymous by default. We’ll be publishing the results openly for everyone, with optional early access if you want it.

Thanks for your help!
