The Network Database Model is a type of database structure that allows multiple relationships between data entities. Unlike the hierarchical model, where data is organized in a tree-like structure, the network model enables more complex relationships by allowing each record to have multiple parent and child records. This flexibility makes it suitable for applications requiring intricate data relationships. In the network model, data is represented as a graph, with nodes representing records and edges representing relationships. This design facilitates efficient data retrieval and manipulation, making it useful in various applications, including telecommunications and transportation systems, where interconnected data is essential.
