Database basics
A database is a systematic data storage and management solution. Ability to easily store, retrieve and manage data. Taking "Three Kingdoms" as an example, each character, equipment attribute, mission status, etc. in the game need to be stored in a reliable place so that they can be read and modified at any time. This is where the database comes into play.
Without an efficient and reliable database, any data-intensive application or service will face huge challenges.

This data not only needs to be stored accurately, but also needs to be retrieved quickly in the future to implement functions such as rankings and character restoration.
