Ask HN: What will you pick as your database of 2026 Yugabyte, TiDB or SurrealDB?

> What will you pick as your database of 2026

Same as last year: Postgres or SQL Server or SQLite.

Honestly, I have no idea what they are.

Depends entirely on the app and use case. For apps that expect PostgreSQL probably Yugabyte, and for apps that expect MySQL probalby TiDB.

DuckDB for integration tasks.
