Introduction to Database Management System<\/h4>\n

A\u00a0database management system<\/a>\u00a0(DBMS) is the\u00a0software<\/a>\u00a0that interacts with\u00a0end users<\/a>, applications, and the database itself to capture and analyze the data. The DBMS software additionally encompasses the core facilities provided to administer the database. The sum total of the database, the DBMS and the associated applications can be referred to as a\u00a0database system. Often the term “database<\/a>” is also used loosely to refer to any of the DBMS, the database system or an application associated with the database.<\/p>\n

1. Database and<\/p>\n

2. Management System<\/p>\n

Data: Facts, figures, statistics<\/a> etc. having no particular meaning.<\/p>\n

Record: Collection of related data items, e.g. in the above example the three data items had no meaning. But if we organize them in the following way, then they collectively represent meaningful information.<\/p>\n
