Elasticsearch Moved Into the Top 10 Most Popular Database Management Systems

Elasticsearch has seen a steady growth in popularity over the last several years. It is now not only the most popular enterprise search engine but it is also one of the 10 most popular database management systems.

We started to monitor Elasticsearch's popularity more than four years ago. In these four years, Elasticsearch became the most popular search engine and it was one of the top three systems in our DBMS of the Year Award in 2014. The steady growth in its popularity as measured by our popularity score is really impressive — they started with a score of 7.4 and are now at 115.98. This is a 15-fold increase in our ranking components such as mentions in job offers, in LinkedIn profiles, in Google Trends, or in activity on Stackoverflow. Elasticsearch was at rank 21 four years ago in our DB-Engines Ranking, and it is now the first search engine in the top 10.
