1. In the mid-1960s, database technology was used to solve the problems of file processing systems. At that time, the database processing technology was still very fragile, and it often happened that applications could not be submitted.

2, the 1970s the birth of the relational model for database experts to provide a standard method of constructing and processing databases, promoting the development and application of relational databases. 1979, Ashton-Tate introduced a microcomputer product dBase Ⅱ and called it a relational database management system, and from then on, database technology was transplanted to the personal computer.

3, the mid to late 1980s, end-users began to use local area network (LAN) technology to connect independent computers into a network, between the terminal **** enjoy the database, forming a new type of multi-user data processing, known as client/server database structure.

Database technology is being used in conjunction with Internet technology to distribute database data on organizational Intranets, departmental LANs, and even the WWW.

Extended Information

In the history of database development, databases have gone through various stages of development, such as hierarchical databases, mesh databases, and relational databases, and database technology has been developing rapidly in various aspects.

In particular, relational databases have become the most important member of the current database products, since the 80's, almost all the database vendors new database products support relational databases, even if some of the non-relational database products almost all have interfaces that support relational databases. This is mainly because traditional relational databases can better solve the problem of managing and storing relational data.

With the development of cloud computing and the arrival of the big data era, relational databases are increasingly unable to meet the needs of this is mainly due to the increasing number of semi-relational and non-relational data need to use the database for storage and management, at the same time, the emergence of new technologies such as distributed technology also put forward new requirements for the database technology, so more and more non-relational databases began to appear.

This type of database and the traditional relational database in the design and data structure is very different, they emphasize the database data of high concurrency read and write and storage of large data, this type of database is called NoSQL (Not only SQL) database. This type of database is called NoSQL (Not only SQL) database. Traditional relational databases still maintain a strong vitality in some traditional areas.
