Many of your activities throughout the day use databases. Here are some common examples.
If you purchase something at the grocery store, the price is being looked up in a database based on the UPC (Universal Product Code)
When you watch TV, and see the Stock Market prices at the bottom of the screen, that is coming from a database (that a friend of mine administers, as a matter of fact) :)
When you make a phone call, a database is being accessed for information on how to route the call. Caller ID information is also looked up in a database.
This web site runs on a database (as do most others)
If you call 411, a database is used to find the phone number you are looking for.
If you call 911, a database is used to cross-reference the calling number to your address.
Your car (if it's less than 20 years old) will have a small database that a technician can read that gives the reason that the "Check Engine" light came on last.
