DatabaseStack

database technology stack, including MS SQL Server, Azure etc.

What and why?

Have you ever wondered:

• what technologies database server really includes?
• how many do I possess?

I could not find a really comprehensive diagram that shows the database technology stack, so I come up with my own version.

There might be issues here and there, like the category, the individual ones, but the beautity is you can modify it as you want.

The Database Stack
