Frequently asked questions
What is a database and what does it do?
A database stores, organizes, and retrieves structured or unstructured data to support application queries, transactions, reporting, and analytics for business processes.
What deployment options are available for databases?
Common deployment options include on-premises, private cloud hosting, and managed cloud services, each differing in operational control, maintenance responsibilities, and resource management.
How are backups and restores typically handled?
Backups use full, incremental, and snapshot techniques; restores can be full or point-in-time depending on logging; automation and offsite copies help meet recovery objectives.
What security measures should be applied to a database?
Apply role-based access control, encryption at rest and in transit, activity auditing, network segmentation, and regular patching, combined with least-privilege access and monitoring for anomalies.
