Answer / v p sharma
The term schema refers to the overall design of the data
base. it is a logical database description and is drawn as
a chart of the type of data that are used it gives the
name of the entity and relationship between them for eg an
information display system that gives info about arrival
and departure of train and aircraft at stations. the schema
will remain the same though the values diplayed in the
sysytem will change from time to time. the term subschema
refers to the same view but but for the data item types and
record types which are used ina particular application or
by particular user.

Answer / neeraj sharma
A database schema is described in a formal language supported by the database management system (DBMS). In a relational database, the schema defines the tables, the fields in each table, and the relationships between fields and tables.
Schemas are generally stored in a data dictionary. Although a schema is defined in text database language, the term is often used to refer to a graphical depiction of the database structure
Levels of database schema

3. Physical schema, a particular implementation of a logical schema
