Databases store electronic representations of data, but traditional file systems generally store paper with data written on it. In a traditional file system a file folder is the the way records are grouped, but in a database records are indexed in many ways, both by "file folder" and by record or data field. With relational database approaches relationships can be established between data in records and new records can be created from crossing files and even databases.
(computer science) A database maintained in physically separated locations and supported by a computer network so that it is possible to access all parts of the database from various points in the network.
A database management system (DBMS) is a software package with computer programs that controls the creation, maintenance, and use of a database. It allows organizations to conveniently develop databases for various applications. A database is an integrated collection of data records, files, and other objects. A DBMS allows different user application programs to concurrently access the same database. DBMSs may use a variety of database models, such as the relational model or object model, to conveniently describe and support applications. It typically supports query languages, which are in fact high-level programming languages, dedicated database languages that considerably simplify writing database application programs. Database languages also simplify the database organization as well as retrieving and presenting information from it. A DBMS provides facilities for controlling data access, enforcing data integrity, managing concurrency control, and recovering the database after failures and restoring it from backup files, as well as maintaining database security.
The five components of a DBMS are hardware, software, data, procedures, and users. Hardware includes the physical devices where the database is stored and processed, while software refers to the actual DBMS program. Data represents the information stored in the database, while procedures define how tasks are carried out within the system. Users interact with the system to input, retrieve, and manipulate data. These components work together to manage and maintain the database effectively.
Data mining involves uncovering insights and patterns from large datasets to help make informed business decisions. It plays a crucial role in database systems by extracting valuable information from the stored data and discovering hidden patterns, trends, and relationships. This process helps businesses identify opportunities, predict future outcomes, and optimize decision-making.

A database is a collection of interrelated data's stored in a database server; these data's will be stored in the form of tables. The primary aim of database is to provide a way to store and retrieve database information in fast and efficient manner. There are number of characteristics that differs from traditional file management system. In file system approach, each user defines and implements the needed files for a specific application to run. For example in sales department of an enterprise, One user will be maintaining the details of how many sales personnel are there in the sales department and their grades, these details will be stored and maintained in a separate file. Another user will be maintaining the salesperson salary details working in the concern, the detailed salary report will be stored and maintained in a separate file. Although both of the users are interested in the data's of the salespersons they will be having their details in a separate files and they need different programs to manipulate their files. This will lead to wastage of space and redundancy or replication of data's, which may lead to confusion, sharing of data among various users is not possible, data inconsistency may occur. These files will not be having any inter-relationship among the data's stored in these files. Therefore in traditional file processing every user will be defining their own constraints and implement the files needed for the applications. In database approach, a single repository of data is maintained that is defined once and then accessed by many users. The fundamental characteristic of database approach is that the database system not only contains data's but it contains complete definition or description of the database structure and constraints. These definitions are stored in a system catalog, which contains the information about the structure and definitions of the database. The information stored in the catalog is called the metadata, it describes the primary database. Hence this approach will work on any type of database for example, insurance database, Airlines, banking database, Finance details, and Enterprise information database. But in traditional file processing system the application is developed for a specific purpose and they will access specific database only.
