I want to know the answer to the following question:
How is data accessed?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Access to these data is usually provided by a "database management system" (DBMS) consisting of an integrated set of computer software that allows users to interact with one or more databases and provides access to all of the data contained in the database (although restrictions may exist that limit access to particular data).". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
