Databases are composed of structured collections of data that are organized to facilitate easy access, management, and updating. They are typically made up of tables, which consist of rows and columns; each row represents a record, while each column represents a specific attribute of that record. Databases also include a schema that defines the structure and relationships between tables, as well as a database management system (DBMS) that provides the tools for data manipulation and retrieval. Additionally, databases may incorporate indexes, views, and stored procedures to enhance performance and functionality.
Does an object oriented database store data in tables?
