[HierarchicalDataBase]s are one of the longest-established types of DataBase, with [GDBM] being a prime example.
The most widely used forms database are [RelationalDataBase]s and their practical offspring [PostRelationalDataBase]s. Because a database by itself is very little use without the support infrastructure of utilities, converters, connectors, tools, tutorials and so forth most are actually Relational Database Management Systems ([RDBMS]). [RDBMS]s include [Oracle], [MySQL], [PostgreSQL], [Microsoft] [SQL] Server, Informix, [Borland] Interbase, FireBird and [IBM] [DB2]. See also PostgresVsMysql.

+[InformationSystem]s such as [MG] use [InvertedIndex]es, which serve to both compress and index natural language text.
