Database Schema

The overall design of the database is called the database schema. A database schema corresponds to the variable declaration in a program. Each database system can have several schemas that are partitioned according to the levels of abstraction. The physical schema describes the database design at the physical level while the logical schema describes the database design at the logical level. A database can have several schemas at the view level which are called its sub-schemas.
