Database Types

There are different types of database which can go to make up a complete project.

Project

A project consists of the complete collection of information which relates to a single design. The project is identified by a name, allocated by the project administrator when the project is first initiated. The project name is used to identify the project to the system whenever the user wants to work in the project using the application which allows access rights and use of system resources to be monitored and controlled. Refer to How Data is Stored and Access Rights for further information on these functions.
