| Relational Database | SQL |
| Database Management System (DBMS) | Data |
| Information | Value |
| A system that collects, processes, stores, analyzes, and disseminates information for a specific purpose. | A structured set of data stored electronically. |
| Structured Query Language, a programming language used for managing relational databases. | A type of database that organizes data into tables with rows and columns, and establishes relationships between tables. |
| Raw facts or figures that have not yet been processed or analyzed. | A software system that manages databases, providing interfaces for users to interact with the data. |
| The worth or significance of data or information in a particular context. | Processed and analyzed data that is meaningful and useful. |
| Accuracy | Relevance |
| Interpretation | Knowledge |
| Data Quality | Data Processing |
| Decision Making | Object-Oriented Database |
| The quality or state of being closely connected or appropriate to a specific purpose or topic. | The degree to which data or information is correct, precise, and free from errors. |
| The understanding or awareness acquired through the interpretation and application of information. | The act of explaining or making sense of data or information by considering its context and implications. |
| The transformation of raw data into a meaningful format through various operations and actions. | The level of accuracy, completeness, and consistency of data. |
| A type of database that stores data as objects, which have their own properties and behaviors. | The process of selecting a course of action or making a choice based on available data and information. |
| Graph Database | Time-Series Database |
| Distributed Database | Nosql Database |
| Flat File Database | Record |
| Field | Delimiter |
| A type of database optimized for storing and retrieving time-stamped or time-series data, such as sensor readings or financial market data. | A type of database that uses graph structures to store, represent, and query relationships between complex interconnected data entities. |
| A type of database that provides a non-relational data model, flexible schema, and horizontal scalability, often used for big data and real-time applications. | A type of database that stores data across multiple computers or servers, allowing for improved performance, fault tolerance, and scalability. |
| A unit of data in a flat file database that contains all relevant information about a specific entity or object. | A type of database that stores data in a plain-text file without a complex structure. |
| A character used to separate fields or records within a flat file database, allowing for easy parsing and retrieval of data. | A component of a record in a flat file database that represents a single attribute or property of the entity being stored. |
| Spatial Database | In-Memory Database |
| Replication | Data Partitioning |
| A database system that primarily relies on the main memory (RAM) of a computer for data storage, instead of traditional disk storage. | A database that is optimized for storing and querying spatial data, such as points, lines, and polygons. |
| A technique used in distributed databases to divide the data into smaller subsets or partitions, which are then stored on different nodes in the network. | The process of creating and maintaining copies of data across multiple nodes in a distributed database for increased fault tolerance and availability. |
