Elaborate the term - Database Connectivity

Basic connectivity

A number of database management systems are available today such as the Oracle, Sybase, Ingres, etc.

Most of the databases that are used to store massive data for use through the Internet deploy Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) designed for PC class hardware. They are also available in both server (workgroup) and local engine (standalone) configurations, and are usually bundled with the power of Structured Query Language (SQL), transaction processing, and distributed processing for building business applications. By supporting client/server architecture, these software achieve a higher level of scalability, which makes them suitable for a wide range of applications; from a standalone, single-user environment to a multi-user workgroup environment.
