Answer the following question.

1. Define Database and define database management system.

A database is an organized collection of structured information, or data, typically stored electronically in


a computer system. A database is usually controlled by a database management system (DBMS).
Database Management Systems (DBMS) are software systems used to store, retrieve, and run queries
on data. A DBMS serves as an interface between an end-user and a database, allowing users to create,
read, update, and delete data in the database. Together, the data and the DBMS, along with the
applications that are associated with them, are referred to as a database system, often shortened to just
database.

2. Discuss the difference between database and database management system.

Database is a collection of data usually in the form of tables. DBMS (Database Management System) is
a set of programs to "manage" a database. Management here means that you can perform stuff like deleting,
modifying, adding data in a table.

3. Enumerate and discuss atleast 7 different project/ideas/topic in database management system/


database application.

Database Project Ideas

Electricity Bill Management System


The main aim of developing the Electricity Bill Management System is to keep records of the
customers’ bills. The admin can manage all the customers’ accounts, and the registered users like
employees and customers can only manage their accounts. This system helps to maintain the bills and
the payments.
In this project, different modules such as Login, User, Admin, Queries, Department, and Meters are
designed considering the basic needs encountered at the time of generation, distribution, payment,
payment, and payment of electricity bills.

Online Retail Application Database

The main aim of this project is to develop an easy-to-use, web-based interface for online customers that
can provide them with a pleasant online shopping experience. Various modules such as Shop Products
Module, Product Description Module, and Shopping Cart Module are designed for different functions.

Inventory Control Management

The aim of designing an inventory control management database is to enable the businesses to
keep the focus on the following:
• To stabilize production
• To take advantage of price discounts.
• Able to fulfill the demand during the replenishment period.
• To prevent loss of orders (sales)
• To keep pace with changing market conditions.

Library Management System


Nowadays, the concept of an online library management system is gaining popularity. It provides a user-
friendly way of issuing books, and it is also possible to view different books and titles available under a
category.
For example, in the college library, teachers and students can be issued books. However, the number of
days for returning books is different for both. Each book and even their copies of the same authors are
assigned a unique ID that helps maintain various records such as to whom the book is issued, date of
issue, duration, returning date, charges, the amount of fine, etc.

Student Database Management


With the help of a database, a student record-keeping management system can be created. The database
contains students’ general information such as name, contact information, address, admission year,
courses, attendance file, fee file, scholarship file, etc. This automated system is beneficial and will
streamline the university administration process to a considerable degree.

Payroll Management System

This SQL database is in high demand because it is used extensively in industries. This is used to manage
the salary system of an organization. It performs many activities such as calculation of the monthly pay,
taxes, and social security of the employees. It uses employee data like name, designation, pay scale,
benefits, etc., for the computation of salaries and keeping the employees’ leave and attendance records.

Its software uses specific formulas to generate output from bank files and salary slips.

It also creates a tax file for the tax office, and this file is stored in the database.

Voice-based Transport Enquiry System

This innovative tool provides a great help in saving time while traveling. Everyone knows that long
queues in front of the transport controller’s office at public transport terminals are a regular thing
because this is the only place commuters can get information about the different types of transport
facilities available. In this case, the use of technology-enabled transport inquiry systems can help in
saving time and effort.

With the help of a database, an automated system for bus stands, railway stations, and airports can be
developed that will take voice commands as input and answer in a voice-based format as output.
