Datatable

It is a visual tool consisting of labeled columns and rows used to organize the information contained in a computer's database.

Datasource

Physical or digital repositories where business information is stored. In the context of computer applications, a data source is the location from which the data used comes.

Database

An organized collection of structured information and/or data.

Data Control Language (DCL)

Data Control Language (DCL) is used to modify the permissions of users and roles associated with a database, that is, to regulate their authorization to access data. SQL is the most widely used data control language. It has three basic commands. Grant (grants permission to use data and execute commands), Deny (restricts or removes permissions granted), Revoke (revokes all permissions granted).

Data Manipulation Language (DML)

Data manipulation language (DML) is a language for manipulating data in database management systems. DML is used to query, insert, update and delete data in a database. SQL is the most widely used DML.

Data Definition Language (DDL)

Data Definition Language (DDL) is a language used in database management systems to define, modify and delete database objects. Data Definition Language commands are used in database design and configuration. SQL is the most widely used Data Definition Language.

Database Management System

When we look at the concept of Database Management System, which is another concept, we can define the software application used for managing, storing, querying, updating and sharing data. Database Management System includes tools and functions that manage databases and enable users to access data.


The Database Management System makes it possible to add data to databases, delete data, update data, query data and report data. The Database Management System also provides important features for data integrity and data security.

Database

When we look at the concept of a database, we can say that it is a data storage and management system that allows information to be stored in a structured way. Databases make data easily accessible, manageable and updatable.


Databases can hold different types of data, for example, customer information, product information, order information and many other types of data. Databases also facilitate data sharing between different users.


Databases can be of different types, such as relational databases and NoSQL databases. Relational databases manage data using a query language such as SQL, while NoSQL databases manage data using document-based, key-value-based or graph-based data structures.


Databases make it easier for businesses to organize, store, query and manage data. Databases also perform important functions such as backing up data, maintaining data integrity and ensuring data security.
