Databases

Bringing order to your data.

If knowledge is power, then data is the generator. Databases are popping up everywhere in this online world, from your day-to-day transactions to your favorite web apps. Your business has its own databases, and the need to put that data to work for you has never been as important as it is now.

Since the mid 1960’s, databases have been the place where information is stored. By the 1970’s, the relationship database model came into use, and since that time, these SQL databases have been the go-to method for database users. Businesses use databases to:

  • Store customer information
  • Tracking inventory
  • Process transactions
  • Actionable and analytical reporting
  • Blog and website content
  • Industry-specific information

Any time a specific piece of information has a common thread with one or more other bits of information, a database will be a useful tool in finding relationships between data and calling up that data to be used in useful ways.
