databases can be used to manage many other types of data such as images, videos, songs, etc. These types of databases are called Multimedia Databases. Common databases which use numeric and textual data can be retrieved using simple comparison of text- numerical values. But this method won’t be applicable for Multimedia Databases. Digitized representation of multimedia data cannot retrieve using simple methods and need to have a specific database system. In the early stages of the computer textual
