Aspects of Databases
The concept of what is a database is not exactly taxing in theory, but
sometimes it is difficult to visualise what one is. The easiest
example that you will be aware of is that little book full of all your
friends telephone numbers and addresses. For each of the entries you
will record the name, address and telephone number of each person in
the book. What you have done is to create a "record" of that person's
details, so when you fill in one entry you create 1 record. Of course
a little book like this will hopefully not contain just one person's
details (although I have to admit that my own social circle is not
much larger than 1, my last telephone bill was a little under £3). You
will probably enter at least 20 or so people, so you have 20 or
records and this makes up a "file".
So a file consists of lots of records, and each of the records are
made up of name, telephone and address, these 3 things are known as
"fields". Not exactly exciting stuff but the definitions are
important.
In your time you have probably received numerous forms to fill in and
may have had a form that is made up of lots of little boxes that you
have to fill in with capital letters and only in black ink. A bit like
the one below:

I know that sometimes there are never enough boxes to get in all your
details. For example someone with the surname "Alexanderson-Smith" may
not have enough room. In Folkestone we have a road called "Bouverie
Road West" - it's often difficult to get that one on a form as well.
This issue is the first thing that you have to deal with when setting
up a database. Let's consider the field "surname", how many characters
should we allow, "Alexanderson-Smith" has 18 characters in it, is that
going to be long enough? What about if Miss Alexanderson-Smith were to
get married to a Mr Featherstonehaugh and she wanted to keep her own

Just like waking up in the morning and inhaling my first conscious-breath of the day, reading is something essential to me. As I child, I used to dream of having my own and private reading place where I would sit and spend my whole day reading my favorite books without any disturbance. Thanks to my dreams, I now have a wonderful private library in my house. This place is not similar to any other ordinary library but a mini place where you can find a massive number of interesting books of different varieties.
Orange Line Pages - Sorry I just did not know what else to call them. I made three pages, from my popular pages, with orange writing lines instead of black. These can be used for the whole journal, holidays, or special days you want to stand out in your journal.
The Database Management System (DBMS) is software that enables the users to define, create, maintain and control the access to the database. It is a software that interact with the user’s applications programs and it database. Meanwhile, information retrieval system is a system that involved the activity that the systems obtain the information. The obtaining information action need the information from it resources.
In our world, people rely heavily on the power of technology every day. Kids are learning how to operate an iPad before they can even say their first word. School assignments have become virtual, making it possible to do anywhere in the world. We can receive information from across the world in less than a second with the touch of a button. Technology is a big part of our lives, and without it life just becomes a lot harder. Just like our phones have such an importance to us in our daily lives, database management systems are the same for businesses. Without this important software, it would be almost impossible for companies to complete simple daily tasks with such ease.
