Does html comes under database?

What is HTML?

HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is the code that is used to structure a web page is the set of markup symbols or codes inserted into a file intended for display on the Internet.

HTML was invented by Tim Berners-Lee in 1990. He led the foundation of the Web.

The markup tells web browsers how to display a web page's words and images.

HTML is used in web development every website on the internet is built using HTML.

HTML is not the only thing used in website development, CSS is used with HTML for styling the website.

CSS changes the properties of the HTML elements(tags) like height, font, color, width, and much more.

Javascript is used with HTML to make HTML elements dynamic and make the website interactive.

There are other languages and scripting languages that can be used with HTML to make a website like PHP, python, but, I won't go into details because that's not related to the article.

What is Database? The database is a collection or group of data that is typically stored electronically in a computer system. A database is usually controlled by a database management system (DBMS).

DBMS (Database management system)

A database management system is a program used to access, manage, modify, update, control, and organize the database.

Some popular DBMS: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft Access, SQL Server, FileMaker, Oracle.

Why databases widely used?

Databases used everywhere these days, most companies and organizations have a database to store their information and data.

You can easily access or manipulate your data.

You can easily search the entire database and filter things out.

Is HTML a SQL?

No, HTML is not related to SQL and it's not used in databases, HTML used in web development to make websites. SQL is a programming language used inside Database management systems(DBMS) to store and manage data and it's a standard language for relational database systems.

Can HTML and Database work together?

Yes, HTML and Database work together to deliver data and information to a user.

Websites send a request to a server and the server gets the data from a database then then the data will be sent to the server and the server sends the data to the website.

The website may use the data to do some calculation and actions with it or show it to the user.

Uses of HTML

1.It is the core technology used in World Wide Web.

2.Html elements are the basic building blocks of a webpage. With CSS and JavaScript forms a triad of cornerstone technologies for the World Wide Web.

3.It is used to show the content on Webpages. Web browsers read an HTML file in the background understands the code written in the file, and displays the webpage accordingly.

4.Game development usage, Before the advent of HTML5, game development was an exclusive domain of Flash and Silverlight. Since browsers support new specifications for HTML5, including CSS3 and light-fast JavaScript engine to drive a new rich experience, HTML5 can bring the reality of game development possible.

5.Native APIs usage to enrich a website, HTML5 adds so many new abilities and tools, which was just an imagination in the past. A large set of new APIs regarding file system, Geolocation, drag and drop, event handling, client-storage etc., are the capabilities that make usage of HTML5 more easier than ever before.

Why HTML is a high-level language?

It's a high-level language because HTML tags are English-like keywords, and it's easy to understand.

Low-level languages have more cryptic keywords and hard to understand directly.

You can easily know what HTML used for and what it does just by tag name and it's designed to be easy for us to understand.

Conclusion

As we discussed these two are two different things they are not related to each other, but they can work together most websites that are made by HTML they get there data from a database.

Altough its very easy to do a search about the topic, it's not as easy to come to a conclusion. What are some cons of storing html in a database for use?

HTML is static, and querying the data from a database uses database resources; database resources are typically among the more restricted on moderate to heavy use systems, therefore it makes sense to not store HTML in the database, but to place it on the filesystem, where it can be retrieved without using critical resources.

In the broadest sense, HTML is a document markup language and serves to structure data into a document. The database on the other hand should contain raw data organized along its logical relations. Documents use formatting and may present data redundantly, but the true, underlying data is always fixed. Thus you should store the most immediate, raw form of data that you possibly can, and retrieve it in meaningful ways using both the query language itself to create suitable views for your purposes, and other, output-specific data processing to generate documents.

Of course you may like to cache the result of an output formatting operation, and you may choose to store the cache in a database, too. That's fine of course. But concerning the raw payload data, I would always go for the above.

That depends on the use of the HTML in the database. If it's data that you only ever access as a blob (meaning you never/rarely query the contents of the HTML), then I think it can be a good idea in some cases. Then the question is essentially the same as "Should I store files in xyz format in my database?" And the answer to questions like that depends on several things:

  1. How large are the files? Would storing them on the filesystem, with just their filename/path in the DB be more efficient?
  2. Do you need to replicate the data to other servers? If so, then storing raw files in the DB may be easier than on the FS, if you already have DB-sync infrastructure in place.
  3. What are your query uses like? Are they friendlier to a DB or a file system storage?

Now, if you're talking about storing HTML data that you frequently have to query, that changes the game entirely.

Any database normalization nazi would tell you never to do it. But there might be cases when it's useful. For instance, if you're using some sort of full-text searching engine, you may want that in a database--or in whatever form the full-text search engine uses.
