What is a database?
 A database in its simplest form is an organized collection of data. The collected information could be in any number of electronic file formats. A database can be stored locally on your computer or remotely over the internet. An example of a database could be an address book or historical sports scores. A database could also be as simple as an alphabetical arrangement of names in an address book or as complex as thumb print records. Many databases start small as a list in a word-processing program or spreadsheet like Microsoft Excel. As the list grows bigger the information may eventually get transferred to higher end software like Microsoft Access.
What is database administration?
Database administration (DBA) is the process of designing, implementation, and maintenance of a company database. Database administration usually invloves an individual or team known as "Database Administrator(s)", and work closely with a Database Analyst, Programmer Analyst, and/or Systems Manager. The role of a database administrator includes the development and design of a database structure, monitoring and improving database performance, capacity, and planning for future expansion requirements. This also includes implementing security measures to safeguard the database from hardware failures, viruses.
