What is database software and why does looking for info about it keep giving me info on creating mobile apps?
I need something will help me create an inventory of rental gear with status, time for service, replacement cost, original vendor, current vendor, etc
So I think I need database software
But when I go look for it, every video explaining DB software seems to talk about using it to create mobile apps
Also wiki software and iA Writer seem to get recommendations which means I maybe don’t want database software but rather something else?
Hjalp!

Database software such as MySql, Postgresql and MongoDB are usually used by other applications to store and retrieve information. They are very good at storing and retrieving data but are not so good at managing or working with the data. For the most part they are designed to be used by programs and not people.
A lot of websites and mobile apps will use a Database in the background to manage their data. This is likely why you’re coming up with so much information on developing mobile apps.
What you likely need is some inventory management software that would use a database in the background while providing a nice easy to use user interface that hides the complexity of the database itself.
