In computing, a database is an organized collection of data or a type of data store based on the use of a database management system (DBMS), the software that interacts with end users, applications, and the database itself to capture and analyze the data. The DBMS additionally encompasses the core facilities provided to administer the database.
The data sets constitute a "database", though they are not typically managed with a standard relational database management system. The computer programs that analyze the data are primarily developed to answer hypotheses, not to put information back into the database and therefore the overall program would not be called a "database application".
KnowledgeMan was an early computer database management system created by Micro Data Base Systems of Lafayette, Indiana. KnowledgeMan was introduced in 1983 and was a PC-sized version of the company's mainframe computing database software. KnowledgeMan was promoted to users of dBase as faster database and using more sophisticated computing power ...
An application that can use ODBC is referred to as "ODBC-compliant". Any ODBC-compliant application can access any DBMS for which a driver is installed. Drivers exist for all major DBMSs, many other data sources like address book systems and Microsoft Excel, and even for text or comma-separated values (CSV) files.
Toad is a database management toolset from Quest Software for managing relational and non-relational databases using SQL aimed at database developers, database administrators, and data analysts. The Toad toolset runs against Oracle, SQL Server, IBM DB2 (LUW & z/OS), SAP and MySQL. A Toad product for data preparation supports many data platforms.
The database schema is the structure of a database described in a formal language supported typically by a relational database management system (RDBMS). The term " schema " refers to the organization of data as a blueprint of how the database is constructed (divided into database tables in the case of relational databases ).
Database Management Library (DBL) is a relational database management system (RDBMS) contained in a C++ programming library. The DBL source code is available under the terms of the GNU General Public License. DBL was fully developed within two weeks, as a holiday programming project. It aims to be easy and simple to use for C++ programming.
