Database Fundamentals — Question 157

Which of the following enables a user to use generic methods to access a database and to focus on the coding rather than the syntax for a specific database API?

Answer options

• A. Abstraction
• B. Database security
• C. Native auditing
• D. Authentication

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, Abstraction, as it allows developers to work with a simplified interface to interact with a database without needing to know the specifics of the underlying API. The other options, such as Database security, Native auditing, and Authentication, pertain to different aspects of database management and do not relate to simplifying coding practices.
