Online Cloud Storage

App Lab has the ability to create and access an online database through an app. This gives the app the ability to store data created in an app or to access information in a database for use in the app. App Lab uses a JSON database format. Databases are made of records and fields which are stored in a table. Tables are made of records (rows or all the info about person or item) and fields (columns or categories). A database may have more than 1 table.
