Enterprise class database system

Some enormous databases support international org. Such databases have hundreds of tables with millions of rows of data and suppport thousands of concurrent ussers. These databases are in use 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week

referential integrity constraints

Null values

missing value

database app

set of one or more computer programs that serves as an intermediary between the user and the DBMS. Application programs also present data to users in the format of forms and reports. Application programs also can be acquired from software vendors, and they are frequently written in house.
