Question ID: 32347
Microsoft sell a database system called SQL Server. It is used by
companies for storing, retreiving and making use of data. Software
developers write software programs based on it and DataBase
Administrators (DBAs) administer the databases. Some specialist
companies provide software tools to make the jobs of the software
developers and DBAs easier. This question relates to these tool
vendors.
I'm interested in some numbers that might help understand this market:
1. An estimate of the numbers of developers and DBAs using SQL Server.
2. The number of tool vendors.
3. Which tool vendors are doing well in the various categories.
4. What the most popular products are.
5. What segmentations the market might have (e.g. products for DBAs vs
Developers).
Sites aimed at developers and dbas looking for info are:
http://www.sql-server-performance.com http://www.sqlservercentral.com,
(old now) http://www.mssqlserver.com http://www.sqlpass.org - however
these sites seem to miss out on some apparently big players like NETiQ
and Embarcadero.
