Web Databases

 A web database is essentially a database that can be accessed from a local network or the internet instead of one that has its data stored on a desktop or its attached storage. It is used for both professional and personal use, they are hosted on websites, and are software as service products, which means that access is provided via a web browser.

One of the web databases that you may have interacted with is a relational database. Relational databases allow you to store data in groups (known as tables), through its ability to link records together.

ADVANTAGES OF WEB DATABASES ARE:-

• The information is accessible from almost any device. Having things stored in a cloud means that it is not stuck to one computer. As long as you are granted access, you can technically get a hold of the data from just about any compatible device.

• Web database programs usually come with their own technical support team so your IT department folks can focus on other pressing company matters.

• Web databases allow users to update the information so all you have to do is to create simple web forms.
