 What is Database Management System (DBMS)?
 It facilitates the definition, creation and manipulation of the
database.
 Definition – it holds only structure of database, not the data. It
involves specifying the data types, structures & constraints for the
data to be stored in the database.
 Creation –it is the inputting of actual data in the database. It
involves storing the data itself on some storage medium that is
controlled by the DBMS.
 Manipulation -it includes functions such as updating, insertion,
deletion, retrieval of specific data and generating reports from the
data.

CS 207 Advanced DBMS Information Management 14
Types of Databases-model
Hierarchical:
• employs the "parent-child" relationship of storing
data.
• Its structure is like a tree with nodes representing
records and branches representing fields.
• Example: The windows registry used in Windows XP is
a hierarchical database example.

Network DBMS:

• This type of DBMS supports many-to-many relations. It

usually results in complex database structures.
• Example: RDM Server

CS 207 Information Management

Types of Databases-MODEL
Relational databases:
• This type of database defines database relationships in the form of tables. It is
also called Relational DBMS, which is the most popular DBMS type in the
market.
• example : MySQL, Oracle, and Microsoft SQL Server database.

Non-relational (NoSQL) databases:

• NoSQL database is used for large sets of distributed data.
• This type of computers database is very efficient in analyzing large-size
unstructured data.
• Hierarchical structure of data
• Examples: MongoDB, Redis, Cassandra, Hbase, Neo4j Oracle NoSQL

CS 207 Information Management

Types of Databases-MODEL
Object-oriented databases:
• This type of computers database supports the storage
of all data types.
• The data is stored in the form of objects.
• The objects to be held in the database have attributes
and methods that define what to do with the data.
• example of
– PostgreSQL

Types of Databases-PROCESSING POWER
Personal database:
• used to store data stored on personal computers that
are smaller and easily manageable.
• The data is mostly used by the same department of
the company and is accessed by a small group of
people.
Commercial Database
• has multiple users with various permissions as well as
numerous applications on high-powered machines.
• High availability commercial databases are costly and
require constant maintenance as well as support.

 What is Data Storage Management?
• IT storage management, also called data
storage management,
• refers to the process of managing data
more effectively.

CS 207 Information Management

 What is Data Storage Management?
• involves tracking and streamlining the central
component of big data that collects and retains
digital information using computers and other
devices.
• It requires a proper understanding of storage
devices and the availability of various types of
data.

 How do storage management tools help with
data storage?
Storage management tools can help you more easily allocate
resources as needed. The tools can also:
• Help you maintain data in a hierarchy, so it’s more easily accessible
for teams
• Give administrators in-depth visibility into application layers to
understand storage assets and their performance
• Send alerts to relevant teams to notify them about the exhausted
storage to help in delivering a seamless end-user experience
• Provide key metrics and reports to help admins accommodate with
data storage as needed
