Andmebaasiühendus

Andmebaasiühendus is an Estonian term that translates to "database connection" in English. It refers to the process of establishing a link between a client application and a database management system. This connection allows the application to interact with the database, enabling operations such as retrieving, inserting, updating, and deleting data.

To establish an andmebaasiühendus, several key pieces of information are typically required. These include the database server's address or hostname, the name of the specific database to be accessed, a username with appropriate permissions, and the corresponding password. Depending on the database system and its configuration, additional parameters like the port number or specific driver information might also be necessary.

Once the connection is successfully established, the client application can send queries or commands to the database. The database management system processes these requests and sends back the results or confirmation of the operation. When the application no longer needs to interact with the database, it is crucial to properly close the andmebaasiühendus to release resources and maintain system security. Insecure or open connections can pose security risks and lead to performance issues. Proper management of database connections is a fundamental aspect of database administration and application development.
