Appwrite Databases let you store and query structured data.
Databases provide high-performance and scalable data storage for your key application, business, and user data.

**Looking for file storage?**

Databases store data, if you need to store files like images, PDFs or videos, use [Appwrite Storage](/docs/products/storage).

You can organize data into databases, tables, and rows. You can also paginate, order, and query rows.
For complex business logic, Appwrite supports relationships to help you model your data.
