ISO/IEC 19075-10:2024
Information technology — Guidance for the use of database language SQL — Part 10: SQL model (Guide/Model)
Product Details
NOTE 2 — In spite of the fact that the names of the ISO/IEC 9075 series of standards contain the phrase “database language”, the standards do not use the word “database” to describe the thing that SQL creates and on which it operates. The word “database” is used in many different contexts and has meanings wholly unrelated to the intent of the ISO/IEC 9075 series. Consequently, a variety of other terms are defined and used by the ISO/IEC 9075 series. The word “database” is frequently used in this document informally to mean “a collection of data managed by an SQL-implementation at any given time.”
