Background: Databases A database is a collection of schemas, tables, queries, reports, views and other objects. The data is organized in a way so that it creates a miniature model of reality.

A general-purpose database management system (DBMS) is designed to allow the definition, creation, querying, update, and administration of databases. Here are some popular database management systems: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Sybase, SAP HANA, and IBM DB2. A database is not generally portable across different DBMSs, but different DBMS can interoperate by using standards such as SQL and ODBC or JDBC to allow a single application to work with more than one DBMS. Database management systems are often classified according to the database model that they support; the most popular database systems since the 1980s have all supported the relational model as represented by the SQL language. Sometimes a DBMS is loosely referred to as a ‘database’.
