Database Overview

A collection of information stored together in a structured and organised way

Databases are arranged using tables, records and fields

Each record has a fields that uniquely identifies (separates) that record from others. This is the primary key

Flat-file

• Repeated data (duplication)

• Greater chance for inaccuracy

• Increases data entry time

• Reduced data integrity (trust in data and query results)

• Easy to create

Relational Database

• Data stored and inputted once

• Can setup access rights for individual tables

• New tables or fields can be added without affecting other tables

• Difficult to setup with specialised software required
