DBMS

DBMS stands for Data Base Management System. This system is a computer software component introduced during 1960’s. It is a software that is used to store any type of data and it should provide easy manipulation of the data such as insertion, deletion, updation of the data. The data can be anything such as raw information about a person, company etc.
DBMS has several components. Some of the major components are external interface, database language engine, query optimizer, database engine, storage engine, DBMS management component, etc.

RDBMS

RDBMS stands for Relational Database Management System. During 1970’s RDBMS or Relational database management system came into existence. It is a software which is used to store only that data which can be stored in the form of tables (also called relations). Data is managed and stored in rows and colums also known as tuples and attributes respectively. RDBMS can be thought of as an extension of DBMS inspite of the differences between them.
Every RDBMS is a DBMS, but the opposite is not true.
