Question

Describe the term DBMS? What is the difference between DBMS & RDBMS?

Answer 1

The key difference is that RDBMS(relational database management system) applications store data in a tabular form, while DBMS applications store data as files. Does that mean there are no tables in a DBMS? There can be, but there will be no “relation” between the tables, like in a RDBMS.

Answer 2

A database-management system (DBMS) is a computer-software application that interacts with end-users, other applications, and the database itself to capture and analyze data. ... A general-purpose DBMS allows the definition, creation, querying, update, and administration of databases.
