IST195 Blog Post 7

The world runs with information. To effectively management information, there needs to be an efficient system to handle, access and distribute the information. This brings the importance of database. A database is able to store all the information, categorize the information accordingly, and distribute it according to the right criteria demanded by the administrator and the user.

My entrepreneurial idea is based out of the distribution of information, therefore it is important to know how databases work in order to store and distribute the travel information efficiently and effectively. With the many types of databases out there, I believe my entrepreneurial idea will use a digitalized format of database - to be precise, a spreadsheet database. This way, most platforms will be able to retrieve and document the right data accordingly. A database program such as Microsoft Access could serve this function most effectively for it is able to build entities and relationships between data. This makes data retrieval and data editing much easier for everyone.
