This document defines and describes several types of databases. It discusses document-oriented databases, which store semi-structured data like documents; embedded databases, which consist of individual end-user data; graph databases, which use graph structures to represent information; hypertext databases, which organize large amounts of disparate information; operational databases, which store detailed organizational operations data; distributed databases, which store data across multiple interconnected computers; and flat-file databases, which are suited for small amounts of manually editable data.

1. Types of
Databases

2. What is database?
• A database is an
organized collection
of data, today typically in
digital form.

3. Document-oriented database

5. Embedded database
• These databases consist of data
developed by individual end-
users. Examples of these are
collections of documents,
spreadsheets, presentations,
multimedia, and other files.

7. Graph database
• Graph database is a kind of No
SQL database that uses graph
structures with nodes, edges, and
properties to represent and store
information.

9. Hypertext database
• Hypertext databases are
particularly useful for organizing
large amounts of disparate
information. For example they
are useful for maintaining
online encyclopedias.

11. Operational database
• These database store detailed
data about the operations of an
organization.

13. Distributed database
• A distributed database is a database in
which storage devices are not all
attached to a common processing unit
such as the C.P.U. It may be stored in
multiple computers located in the same
physical location, or may be dispersed
over a network of interconnected
computers.

15. Flat-File
• The flat-file style of database
are ideal for small amounts of
data that needs to be human
readable or edited by hand
