A database
A distributed database is a database in which portions of the database are stored on multiple computers within a network. Users have access to the portion of the database at their location so that they can access the data relevant to their tasks without interfering with the work of others. A centralized distributed database management system manages the database as if it were all stored on the same computer.
No, a database isn't a document. A database is a storage place, where everything digital and in the computer is stored, while a document is just text on a word processing page, an has a limited amount of information.
The database we use in our daily life is called as active database . The data that is stored in the database which is further stored on the cloud is called cloud database.

Depends on what you consider a database. Within the realm of computing, yes... a database is stored/accessed on a computer. But, a telephone book is also a database in the broad sense of the word (it certainly was before computers came around) or any such reference document or report.
DATABASE FILE - is one that is stored on a server and it is in the format that the database needs to read it. It is stored in the database catalog......
simply files are stored in database in upper to lower order.
A centralised database is a single database under the control of a single Database Management System. All users and client applications connect directly to the DBMS. This means that the database is stored in only one location and everyone in the system is directly connected to it. Unlike a distributeddatabase which is a set of connected databases stored on multiple computers that appears to users as a single database.
