Even if you don't use the language specifically, the ideas it provides on creating queries applies to pretty much every database I've used, with the one exception being Redis.

It also doesn't hurt it's the most popular language at the moment and judging by the amount of applications using it, won't be disappearing anytime soon (especially not in just ten years).
