data bank

In telecommunications, a data bank is a repository of information on one or more subjects that is organized in a way that facilitates local or remote information retrieval. A data bank may be either centralized or decentralized. In this sense, data bank is synonymous with database. (Sources: Federal Standard 1037C and MIL-STD-188) Data bank may also refer to an organization primarily concerned with the construction and maintenance of a database.
