Database Management Systems

This allows a direct call from the client machine to the DBMS server and is a practical solution for intranet access.

ODBC binary code and in many cases database client code must be loaded on each client machine that uses JDBC-ODBC Bridge plus ODBC driver.

JDBC works on top of ODBC and then we have something called as a JDBC-ODBC bridge to access the database.

The goal of ODBC is to make it possible to access any data from any application, regardless of which DBMS is handling the data.

FSSP (Families of Structurally Similar Proteins) is automatically generated by comparing all protein structures in the PDB database using automated structure alignment algorithms. CATH and SUPERFAMILY involve manual curation or classification. SOCP (if referring to Structural Classification of Proteins) would be SCOP, which is also manual.

A field is a record that holds unique data which identifies the record from all the other records in a file or database.

It is a special-purpose programming language designed for managing data held in a relational database management system.

Structured Query Language is a special-purpose programming language designed for managing data held in a relational database management system.

It is the smallest component under which data is entered through data entry. All data fields in the same database have unique names.

This is a program module that provides the interface between the low-level data stored in a database.

In OLTP database, there is detailed and current data, and the schema used to store transactional databases is the entity model.

It is the field concerned with the computer-controlled integration of text, graphics, drawings, video, animation and audio.

In a database table, a field is a data structure for a single piece of data. Fields are organised into records, which contain all the information.

A tablespace is a storage location where the actual data underlying database objects can be kept. It provides a layer of abstraction between physical and logical data.

In an indexed cluster, Oracle stores together rows having the same cluster key value. Each distinct cluster key value is stored only once in each data block, regardless of the number of tables and rows in which it occurs.
