Database



A database is a stored and organized collection of information that can be manipulated for desired purposes. IBM defines a database as 'a collection of interrelated or independent data items that are stored together to serve one or more applications.' There is no organization or business that doesn't collect data. Governments, hospitals, banks, universities, social media platforms such as Facebook, and other big companies are among those who collect and build data in order to manage businesses more effectively to improve security, provide better customer experience, or simply have better sales.

Database design and management are very important in today's information systems. When a database is well-designed and properly managed, it can help organizations store and organize data efficiently. This can lead to better decision-making and improved services for customers. Good database design and management are essential for success in today's data-driven world. Various tools and techniques are available for database design and management, such as data modelling, database normalization, SQL, and data backup and recovery.

(Edusera, 2022)



Databases are an essential tool for managing and storing data efficiently. Their ability to organize, search, and retrieve data quickly and accurately provides businesses and organizations with the necessary information to make informed decisions and improve their operations.

Computer Ethics

Image
According to Britannica ethics is 'the discipline concerned with what is morally good and bad and morally right and wrong. The term is also applied to any system or theory of moral values or principles' (Encyclopaedia Britannica, 2023). It surely has to be applied in the field of computing. As computer technology evolves, computer ethics studies how to deal with ethical dilemmas and ethical issues arising from its use. Technology ethics involves determining appropriate guidelines and principles for using technology responsibly and ethically. It also involves understanding and analysing the impact of technology on individuals, society, and the environment.

It puts into question the responsible and moral development, implementation, and use of computer systems a...
