" summary

Surveys 2022 trends: analytical systems move to distributed architectures with storage/compute separation, many teams run 10 or more databases, and serverless shifts billing to data volume and query complexity rather than servers. Postgres protocol compatibility spreads (ClickHouse, CockroachDB, Yugabyte) and Snowflake tops DB-Engines in 2021 as a cloud-first winner. License changes (Elastic → non-open prompted the OpenSearch fork) reshape adoption. Kubernetes operators become the common foundation for multi-cloud DBaaS with day‑two automation.
