What is Data base(DB)?


 Data base is a collection of realted data like

 The data in a online banking system data base has to be realted to that particular
bank,
 Similarly the data in a library management system data base has to be realted to
that particular library . so this is what we called as a DB.

redundancy (It means duplication) stored in one place and accessed by multiple
users at a time simutanoesly.
 A data base is a collection of information that is organized so that it can be easily
accessed managed and updated.
 You can organize data into tables , rows,columns and index it to make it easier to
find relveant information.
 The main purpose of the data base is to operate a large amount of information by
storing , retrieving and managing data.

Application
Program
(Ex: C,C++,Java) End User (or)
Programmer(or)
Administrator
Software

Where data base is stored?


 In above drawing complete the entire black cube is called DBMS software.
 Inside the DBMS we can manage the DB with the help of this software.
 We are storing a data . this data will access by the end user (or) the programmers
(means users).
 We want to access the data means we need to get access with the help of DBMS
only.
 Application program is nothing but it is like c,c++,java these all are called different
application program.
DBMS
EX : ORACLE , MYSQL , SQL ,
PosterSQL , MongoDB

Data
DATA BASE
With the help of these DBMS software and Application program we a
Appication Program
EX : C,C++,JAVA , Python

 We can access these data with the help of application and DBMS software.
 With the help of these two application( DBMS & Application) we can retrieve the
data , we can modify the data , we can delete the data , whatever operations that we
want to perform on this data only with the help of application program and DBMS
