Role of databases in Business

16 October, 2015 - 16:43

Everybody uses a database in some way, maybe just to store information about their friends and family. That data might be written down or stored in a computer using a word processing program, or it could even be saved in a spreadsheet. However, the best place for it would be the Database Management Software (DBMS). The DBMS is a power software tool that allows you to store, manipulate and retrieve data in a variety of different ways.

Most companies keep track of customer information by storing it in a database. That data may be customers, employees, products, orders, or anything that may assist the business in their operations.
