FN-FORUM: Databases (again)

date posted 1st August 2003 15:00

Hi all

Just asking the same question again - anyone know of a resource that gives a
quick description of the more commonly used database types and their pros
and cons? If it's relevant, the database will hypothetically be used to
access streaming media files. I need to do the research for a job I'm going
for, where I need an awareness of databases (at present, I'm aware of them,
but that's about it! It would be good if I could go to the interview with a
little knowledge...)

Regards
