The DELETE command in a database removes records from a table, but it does not immediately release the space back to the operating system. Instead, the space used by the deleted records may remain allocated for future use within the database. To reclaim space more effectively, database administrators often use commands like VACUUM (in PostgreSQL) or similar maintenance tasks to compact the database and release unused space.
