Databases

At Zonixsoft, we use a variety of databases to develop and deliver high-quality software solutions for our clients. We choose the best database for each project based on the requirements, preferences, and goals of our clients. We also have the expertise and experience to work with different types of databases, such as relational, non-relational, or hybrid.

In this page, we will introduce you to some of the databases we use for software development, and explain why we use them and what benefits they offer.

MSSQL

MSSQL, also known as Microsoft SQL Server, is a relational database management system (RDBMS) that is widely used for enterprise-level applications. It supports the SQL (Structured Query Language) standard for querying and manipulating data, as well as various extensions and features, such as stored procedures, triggers, views, indexes, and transactions.

We use MSSQL for software development because:

  • It is reliable, secure, and scalable. It offers high availability, disaster recovery, encryption, authentication, and authorization features to ensure the integrity and availability of data. It also supports horizontal and vertical scaling, as well as cloud deployment, to handle large and complex data sets.
  • It is compatible and integrated. It works well with other Microsoft products and technologies, such as Windows, .NET, Azure, and Visual Studio. It also supports various data types, formats, and sources, such as XML, JSON, spatial, temporal, and external data.
  • It is intelligent and performant. It leverages artificial intelligence, machine learning, and analytics to optimize the performance and efficiency of data processing. It also provides tools and services for data analysis, reporting, and visualization, such as Power BI, SQL Server Analysis Services, and SQL Server Reporting Services.

MySQL

MySQL is an open source RDBMS that is widely used for web-based applications. It supports the SQL standard for querying and manipulating data, as well as various extensions and features, such as stored procedures, triggers, views, indexes, and transactions.

We use MySQL for software development because:

  • It is fast, flexible, and easy to use. It offers high performance, concurrency, and scalability for handling large and dynamic data sets. It also supports various storage engines, such as InnoDB, MyISAM, and Memory, to suit different needs and preferences. It also has a simple and intuitive syntax and interface for data management.
  • It is compatible and portable. It works well with various operating systems, platforms, and languages, such as Linux, Windows, Mac, PHP, Java, and Python. It also supports various data types, formats, and sources, such as XML, JSON, spatial, and external data.
  • It is free and community-supported. It is licensed under the GNU General Public License, which means it is free to use and modify. It also has a large and active community of developers and users who contribute to its development, maintenance, and support.

PostgreSQL

PostgreSQL is an open source RDBMS that is widely used for complex and advanced applications. It supports the SQL standard for querying and manipulating data, as well as various extensions and features, such as stored procedures, triggers, views, indexes, and transactions. It also supports many advanced features, such as user-defined types, functions, operators, and aggregates, inheritance, polymorphism, and foreign data wrappers.

We use PostgreSQL for software development because:

  • It is robust, reliable, and secure. It offers high availability, durability, consistency, and isolation for data processing. It also supports various mechanisms for data protection, such as encryption, authentication, authorization, and auditing.
  • It is compatible and extensible. It works well with various operating systems, platforms, and languages, such as Linux, Windows, Mac, Java, Python, and Ruby. It also supports various data types, formats, and sources, such as XML, JSON, spatial, temporal, and external data. It also allows users to create and use their own custom types, functions, operators, and aggregates.
  • It is powerful and versatile. It leverages artificial intelligence, machine learning, and analytics to optimize the performance and efficiency of data processing. It also provides tools and services for data analysis, reporting, and visualization, such as PostgreSQL Analytical Server, PostgreSQL Reporting Server, and PostgreSQL Visualization Server.

These are some of the databases we use for software development at Zonixsoft. We hope this page gives you an overview of our database expertise and capabilities.
