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.

What is database and its use?

A database is just a bunch of information. A phone/address book would be an example of a database. It's used wherever there's a bunch of information someone wants to keep track of, and to be able to look things up. In a phone/address book data base, you could enter a number and search for a name, or enter a name and search for a number. Or have it sorted after street address, zip code, or whatever items you have entered in the database.
