There are no exact and fixed definitions to my knowledge and, in general, in the

a difference, and even a hierarchy (well,

Theoretically, a is a logically structured set

One is a set, not necessarily structured


information, generally grouped (in the form of manual files or

It is also common to assert (even if it is not directly related to their


definition), a DATABASE is composed of DATABASES (but this
is not quite reality)

In fact, commercially for example, we said that the juridical (or jurifrance)
contained the CASS, INCA, JADE, CONSTIT, LEX, etc. (note that we use some
uppercase for the bases (old school computing) and lowercase for the
banks).

Hello

In my opinion, as soon as we talk about Bank or Database, the content remains the same.
The notion differs according to its use.
We will use the term "database" for the end user, meaning the one who consults the
content.
We will use the term 'Database' for the user who administers the content, that is to say, the one
which enriches the content.
