There are two kinds of databases. RDBMS and DBMS. Anything which stores data in rows and columns can be called as a database. Even a text file can be a database if it contains data in this format. XML files also can be treated as database. We can query a database using SQL (Structured Query Language) to extract information from a database. This data can be manipulated in different ways to generate reports or use in your software.
In database management, a flat file is one that holds all the information in a single table.By contrast, a relational database has two or more tables having a defined relationship to each other.A flat file is not related to any other table.ExamplesFlat fileYou could keep details of a DVD collection in a flat file. Some of the fields might be:titledate purchasedlengthyear issuedRelational databaseA retail business might have a database with three tables:products [one record for each type of item for sale]customersproducts&customers [each sale constitutes a record in this table. The table is related (linked) to each of the other two tables]Tables and files"Table" is a database term, "file" a computer term. Some database management programs make each table into a separate file. Others store all the tables in a single file.
Updating files ensures that the files contain the most up-to-date information available. In most cases updates will provide new information that wasn't previously available, or will correct information that was previously in error. A well-organised database will also provide a complete history of all amendments made to a file, when they were made, why they were made and who updated them. This ensures the quality of the information provided is as reliable as possible.

Hibernate is a framework in Java and J2EE which is used to connect to the database in Enterprise class applications. Actually Hibernate is too big a topic to elaborate in one answer but it is used to connect to databases and retrieve/update values. The benefit is that, we need not manually write queries like we do in normal Java database connectivity. Instead hibernate takes care of connecting to the database and picking up or updating the values we need. It does this with the help of hibernate mapping files which are xml files that represent the database schema which we intend on retrieving or updating.
The FBI's Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System (IAFIS) contains over 70 million criminal fingerprints and over 34 million civil fingerprints.
That's classified... there is more than 450 million fingerprints in the FBI master database of criminal file trust me i looked it up at a educatinal site in science class its right ;D
There are a number of ways you can store fingerprints in a database. You can for example scan them and save them as individual files.
MDF = Master Database File
A database holds records in files that are called tables. Each table has a specific key that defines that table and each master key is unique.
MFT (Master File Table) to hold records about files and their locations.
Datafile is a group of files in each table space in an Oracle database. Database files are all files that are found within the database.
* Database datafiles - contain the data itself * Control files - binary files containing information about the database (name, files, backup...) * Online redo logs - files, which record every transaction in the database * Parameter files - database parameter file * Other database related files - password files, alert log, trace files...
