A database is an organized collection of data.

It is the collection of schemas, tables, queries, reports, views, and other objects.

The United States of America (USA), commonly known as the United States (U.S) or America, is a constitutional federal republic composed of 50 states, a federal district, five major self-governing territories, and various possessions.

A network bridge is a computer networking device that creates a single aggregate network from multiple communication networks or network segments.

This function is called network bridging.

Bridging is distinct from routing, which allows multiple different networks to communicate independently while remaining separate.

In the OSI model, bridging is performed in the first two layers, below the network layer (layer 3).

If one or more segments of the bridged network are wireless, the device is known as a wireless bridge and the function as wireless bridging.

In computer networks, a tunneling protocol allows a network user to access or provide a network service that the underlying network does not support or provide directly.

One important use of a tunneling protocol is to allow a foreign protocol to run over a network that does not support that particular protocol; for example, running IPv6 over IPv4.

Another important use is to provide services that are impractical or unsafe to be offered using only the underlying network services; for example, providing a corporate network address to a remote user whose physical network address is not part of the corporate network.

Because tunneling involves repackaging the traffic data into a different form, perhaps with encryption as standard, a third use is to hide the nature of the traffic that is run through the tunnels.

Component Object Model (COM) is a binary-interface standard for software components introduced by Microsoft in 1993.

It is used to enable inter-process communication and dynamic object creation in a large range of programming languages.

COM is the basis for several other Microsoft technologies and frameworks, including OLE, OLE Automation, Browser Helper Object, ActiveX, COM+, DCOM, the Windows shell, DirectX, UMDF and Windows Runtime.

The essence of COM is a language-neutral way of implementing objects that can be used in environments different from the one in which they were created, even across machine boundaries.

For well-authored components, COM allows reuse of objects with no knowledge of their internal implementation, as it forces component implementers to provide well-defined interfaces that are separated from the implementation.

The different allocation semantics of languages are accommodated by making objects responsible for their own creation and destruction through reference-counting.

Type conversion casting between different interfaces of an object is achieved through the method.

The preferred method of "inheritance" within COM is the creation of sub-objects to which method "calls" are delegated.
