Databases

Really getting back into this. Need to complete by January 7. Use Template:Databases on every page related to this

Data vs knowledge
Data is just the bytes Information adds context allowing it to be used It involves metadata

File system vs database
Databases are more effective than file systems for a wide variety of purposes and reasons. Notably efficiency in accessing data and storing it in one place

Transient vs periodic data
Transient data is overwritten and periodic is never altered, just added to store
