II. PROPERTIES AND THEOREMS
1. ACID Property:
For the dependability of
SQL databases bolster ACID
Consistency, Isolation, and
properties. Every one of
property is clarified with
databases as follows [1]: -
Atomicity:By this, we imply that either
the whole exchange happens without a
moment's delay or doesn't occur by any
stretch of the imagination. There is no
halfway for example exchanges don't
happen somewhat. Every exchange is
considered as one unit and either rushes to
finishing or isn't executed in any way. It
includes the accompanying two tasks.
Abort: If an exchange prematurely ends,
changes made to the database are not
noticeable. Commit: If an exchange
submits, changes made are obvious.
Consistency:This implies trustworthiness
requirements must be kept up with the goal
that the database is steady when the
exchange. It alludes to the rightness of a
database.
Isolation:This property guarantees that
numerous exchanges can happen
simultaneously without prompting the
irregularity of the database state.
Exchanges happen freely without
impedance. Changes happening in a
specific exchange won't be unmistakable
to some other exchange until that specific
change in that exchange is kept in touch
with memory or has been submitted.
Durability:This property guarantees that
once the exchange has finished execution,
the updates and adjustments to the
database are put away in and written to
plate and theycontinue regardless of

happens.
exchanges, 2. CAP Theorem:
(Atomicity, NoSQL underpins CAP Theorem it
Durability) includes the accompanying three
the ACID properties: Consistency, Availability, and
regards to Partition -tolerance[1].
Consistency:The information present on
all machines must be the equivalent in all
updations to be made on all machines
much of the time, for example, predictable
information.
Availability:Data ought to be accessible
for all time and not incidentally for
example it should be available all the time
for example accessibility.
Partition-tolerance:If there should be an
occurrence of machine disappointment or
any shortcomings happened in the
machine's database should work
appropriately without taking any end for
example segment resistance.
III. TYPES OF DATABASES
1. SQL Databases:

stands for Structured Query Language. A
few models for RDBMS are MS Access,
Oracle, MySQL, Informix, SQL Server,
these are explained below. These databases
use SQL as their standard database query
