Slide 2 : Introduction
- What is a database ? A database is an organized system for storing and
managing data, allowing it to be stored, manipulated, and retrieved efficiently.
It can be thought of as a secure vault containing linked information.
- Why are they important ? Databases are essential in our daily lives. They
power e-commerce applications, social networks, banking services, and many
others. They allow us to centralize, organize, and secure our data in a reliable
way.

purchase, your personal information, the product ordered, the price, and other
details are stored in a database. This allows Amazon to efficiently manage its
transactions and provide you with personalized recommendations.
