Second place: Nonrelational DBMS.
DBMS is an old database protocol, sort of like MySQL. MySQL is in fact one of the database protocols that replaced DBMS.
Click to expand...

DBMS = Database Management System ...aka any program allowing you to create, edit and manage databases, such as Microsoft Access.
I dont think thats a protocol :p...
Its a piece of software. And I doubt its going out of use.

I was gonna say ,the last time I used cobol was in 97 in college. I learned it, but even back then they said it was a very old programming language and wasnt going to be around long.

C/C++ has new iterations it seems every year. Its still widely in use and along with Visual Basic, is included in alot of MS Code. I think it will be awhile before C/C++ is gone.


Ive seen a few new programming languages out and new programming os and such (oracle database, leopard, etc and some programming codes I cant remember) and alot of companies here are hiring for those who know them.

Ha, I still have a friend that goes on and on about how much better Netware is over Microsoft's solutions! He is utterly amazed most of the time when he comes to me and says "hey I just learned that Netware lets me do _____, you can't do that with Windows" and I say "yeah, I have been doing that for sometime now with Windows".
