Database Models And Its Type

A database model shows the logical structure of a database, including the relationships and constraints that determine how data can be stored and accessed.

Types of  Database Models:

  • Hierarchical database model
  • Network model
  • Entity-relationship model
  • Relational model
  • 1.Hierarchical Model:

    The hierarchical model organizes data into a tree-like structure, where each record has a single parent or root. Sibling records are sorted in a particular order. That order is used as the physical order for storing the database. This model is good for describing many real-world relationships.

    2.Network Model:

    If a child in a data relationship has more than one parent,the relationship cannot be described as a tree or hierarchical structure.Instead it is described as a network or plex structure.

    Any item in a plex structure can be linked to any other item.In a plex structure, child can have more than one parent.
