Database Systems and Management Definition

A database system is a shared integrated computer structure that stores a collection of (i) end-user data, that is, raw facts of interest to the end user, and (ii) metadata, or data about data, through which the end user data are integrated and managed (Coronel et al., 2011). In other words, database systems and management is a discipline that focuses on the proper generation, storage, and retrieval of data (Rob & Coronel, 2009).
