What does SGBD mean?

Question

As I could not find the answer anywhere else:

What is SGBD? Is it "Système de Gestion de Bases de Données" (Database management system)?

E.g. it is used in responses to these two Stack Overflow questions:

1. Trip time calculation in relational databases?

2. How can I use Python for large scale development?

Answer 1

Yes you're right, I confirm that in French we use the abbreviation SGBD for 'Système Gestion de Base de Données' (DataBase Management System / DBMS) to which we can sometimes add R (SGBDR) 'Système Gestion de Base de Données Relationnelle' (RDBMS).

Answer 2

SGBD also applies for Spanish: Sistema de Gestion de Bases de Datos.

Answer 3

SGBD = Database System

The english acronym is RDBMS (Relational database management system)

Answer 4

SGBD might also mean "Sistema de Gestão de Banco de Dados" in Portuguese. Literally, "Database Management System", our good old DBMS.

Answer 5

A SGBD is a "Système de Gestion de Base de Données" which is exactly the same as a DBMS. I can't say much more since there are no great translation subtlety.
