Expert Solution
Step 1

Different types of users in database environment

Database Administrator (DBA): A database administrator (DBA) is a person or group who creates the schema and manages the database's three levels.
If the user needs to access the database, the DBA will generate a new account id and password for him or her.
The DBA is also in charge of database security, ensuring that only authorized individuals have access to and edit the database.

End users who are naive or parametric: End-users who are naive or parametric do not have any DBMS knowledge yet routinely use database applications in their daily lives to achieve the necessary results.
Railway ticket booking users, for example, are naive. Clerks in any bank are naive users because they lack DBMS understanding, but they nonetheless use the database to do their tasks.

 

System Analyst: A user who evaluates the requirements of parametric end users is known as a System Analyst. They make sure that all of the end users' expectations are met.
