Database is used to store data (information). In general, A file can be a database, which holds important papers as information. and when we need particular data(paper) we can access it through related file. In terms of computer, data can be in many forms such as text, images, audio, video etc. which is need to be stored properly. In fact, your Hard-Disk can be termed as Database. If you need more information about computer databases. Formal Databases are of 2 types: 1) SQL Based Databases stores data in table in form of rows and columns. e.g: MySQL, MariaDB, Oracle etc. 2) NOSQL Based Databases stores data in form of graphs, documents etc. e.g: MongoDB, Hadoop, Hive etc. Happy Coding....😊
