Databases are vast architectural projects aimed at constructing a suitable foundation for storing data, such as words, dodgeballs, numbers, sticky notes, or arbitrary random numbers. Databases are mostly made out of bricks and rocks. In recent decades, databases have been mostly replaced by the cloud due to safety concerns, following the collapse of the Superconducting Super Collider project being blamed mostly on unsafe building practices used in laying the database.

Hiyori, sitting on a well-built database.

The database has its origins from the mythical story of SQL in the third century BCE, as a fable well-kept by hundreds of generations of master architects. Despite its age, it remains the primary technique of database construction.
