Does a database have to be computerized?

No. A database can be manual, like a phone book or a shopping list. For it to be a database it needs to be structured or organised. If you take a phone book, although there are thousands of names in it, you can usually find a phone number you are looking for very quickly. This is because the phone book is structured and organised. So it does not have to be on a computer to be a database. A manual database can be computerised. The data would be entered into a computer.


Differentiate manual database to a computerized database?

A manual database is a paper based database. A computerized database is one which is held on a computer in an organised manner. A computerized database is more advantageous than manual database in terms of speed, flexibility, and ease.A manual database would normally be data held on paper. So this could be things like a phone book or address book, or files held in a filing cabinet. A computerised database is held on a computer in an organised and structured form. Usually this is done using a database application such as Oracle or Access etc. It is easy to manipulate and extract data, so far more efficient than a manual database.


Why it is important to organize information in a database?

If it is not organised, a database is useless. A database is a file of organised and structured data. If you take a phone book, although there are thousands of names in it, you can very quickly find the number that you are looking for. That is because it is organised, with names in columns, addresses in columns and numbers in columns, and the entire phone book has the entries entered in alphabetical order. If you had another phone book, with all the same names, address and phone numbers, but they were not organised, it could take you hours to find the number you were looking for. So if data is organised in a database, then it is much easier to work with it, not just for finding data, but also for doing many other things with it. A badly designed database will result in lots of problems when you try to use it. So it is very important to properly design a database so that all of the data is organised in it.
