According to Thomas M. Connolly and Carolyn E. Begg
(2009:15), Database is a shared collection of logically related data,
and a description of this data, designed to meet the information needs
of an organization.
The database is a single, possibly large repository of data that
can be used simultaneously by many departments and users. Instead
of disconnected files with redundant data, all data items are integrated
with a minimum amount of duplication.
