Answer:
Flat file A flat file database stores data in a single table structure. A relational database uses multiple table structures, cross-referencing records between tables. Tables in both organize records in rows, with each column containing a single piece of data in the record.
Relational Database
In addition to the data tables, relational databases use "indexes" to quickly find records based on search criteria. Relational databases generally require a relational database management system (RDBMS) to manage and access the data.
