A database is a logically organized collection of structured data kept electronically in a computer system. A database management system is usually in charge of a database (DBMS). The data, the DBMS, and the applications that go with them are referred to as a database system, which is commonly abbreviated to just a database. I also learned about the hierarchical, network, relational, multidimensional, and object-oriented database models. You can use any of these to describe a database, based on a variety of criteria. The most important consideration is whether or not the database management system you're using supports a specific model. Although some database management systems accept numerous data models, most are created with a certain data model in mind and require their users to utilize it.
