Definition
A database is an organized collection of structured data stored in a computer system. A database is like a digital filing cabinet where you can store and organize information.
Components
- Data: The actual information you want to keep (e.g., customer names, product prices).
- Database Management System (DBMS): Software that helps manage and access the data efficiently.
Examples
- Imagine a spreadsheet where you list your contacts. Each row represents a person, and each column holds specific details (like name, phone number, and email).
- Databases work similarly but can handle much more data and allow multiple users to access and update it simultaneously.
