Database
A database is just a collection of data that is arranged in a way that is easily accessed and maintained.
- Relational databases are where you organise all your data as tables that have relationships with each other.
- Non-relational databases are those where you don’t use tables. Instead they could be:
- Document-oriented — essentially all your data is stored as JSONs, which we call documents.
- Graph — we model the data as a graph, storing it as nodes and edges.
