Data Access

Data Access refers to the methods and processes used to retrieve, manipulate, and manage data stored in databases or data storage systems. It encompasses various techniques and protocols that enable users or applications to obtain data from a data source, such as through querying a database, reading files, or interfacing with APIs. Data Access can involve both direct access to storage systems and managed access through layers like data access layers or middleware. It is crucial in applications where data needs to be consistently and efficiently fetched or updated, ensuring that data integrity and security are maintained throughout. Data Access can be optimized for performance and scalability, depending on the system’s requirements and the volume of data being processed.
