You are a member of the project team for developing a new accounting database. At the last project meeting, some team members suggested using database structures other than a relational database. You have been assigned the task of researching other database structures and reporting back to the team at the next meeting.

Go online and search for information about network, hierarchical, and object-oriented database structures. Compare the advantages and disadvantages of each with the relational database structure used for most operational databases such as accounting. Who are the solution providers for the other types of database structures? Write a summary of your findings that you can distribute to the team members at the next meeting.
