The Relational Model is a way to organize and manage data in databases. It uses tables, also known as relations, where each table consists of rows and columns. Each row represents a unique record, while each column holds specific attributes of that record. This structure makes it easy to retrieve and manipulate data using a language called SQL (Structured Query Language).
In the Relational Model, relationships between different tables are established through keys. A primary key uniquely identifies each record in a table, while foreign keys link records across tables. This design allows for efficient data organization and retrieval, making it a popular choice for many database systems, including those used by companies like Oracle and Microsoft.
