Conventional databases

A conventional database, often referred to as a traditional or centralized database, is a structured collection of data that can be easily accessed, managed, and updated. It operates on a centralized system where a single entity or a group of related entities have control over the data.

Blockchain databases

A blockchain database is a type of digital ledger that is distributed across a network of computers. Each block in the chain contains a record of multiple transactions and a unique cryptographic signature that verifies the validity of the transactions in that block. Once a block is added to the chain, it cannot be altered or deleted, ensuring the integrity of the data stored in the database.
