FUNDAMENTALS OF DATABASE SYSTEM

10 EXAMPLES OF DATABASES:
1. Relational Database: A type of database that organizes data into tables with rows and columns, where
each row represents a record and each column represents a specific attribute of that record. Examples
include MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Microsoft SQL Server.
2. NoSQL Database: A non-relational database that provides a mechanism for storage and retrieval of
data that is modeled in means other than the tabular relations used in relational databases. Examples
include MongoDB, Cassandra, and Redis.
3. Document-Oriented Database: A type of NoSQL database that stores, retrieves, and manages
document-oriented information, typically JSON or XML documents. Each document may contain a
varying number of fields, and the structure of the documents may vary from one to the other. Examples
include MongoDB and Couchbase.
4. Graph Database: A database designed to treat relationships as equally important to data storage. It
uses graph structures with nodes, edges, and properties to represent and store data. Examples include
Neo4j and Amazon Neptune.
5. Key-Value Store: A type of NoSQL database that uses a simple key-value method for storing data.
Each item in the database is stored as a pair of keys and values, allowing for efficient retrieval of data.
Examples include Redis and DynamoDB.
6. Time-Series Database: A database optimized for handling time-series data, which is data that is
indexed by time. It is commonly used for storing and analyzing data generated by sensors, IoT devices,
and monitoring systems. Examples include InfluxDB and Prometheus.
7. Columnar Database: A database management system that stores data tables as sections of columns of
data rather than as rows of data, enabling faster queries for analytics and business intelligence
applications. Examples include Apache Cassandra and Amazon Redshift.

8. Spatial Database: A database optimized for storing and querying spatial data, such as geographic
information system (GIS) data, maps, and coordinates. It provides support for spatial data types and
spatial indexing for efficient spatial queries. Examples include PostGIS and Oracle Spatial.
9. In-Memory Database: A database system that primarily relies on main memory for computer data
storage, which enables faster data access and retrieval compared to traditional disk-based databases.
Examples include SAP HANA and Redis.
10. Multimodal Database: A database management system that supports multiple data models, allowing
users to work with different types of data within the same database. It can integrate relational, graph,
document, and other data models. Examples include ArangoDB and OrientDB.
