A database is an organized collection of structured information, or data, typically stored electronically in a computer system. A database is usually controlled by a database management system (DBMS). - source
Database is a technology domain when you have a requirement to store large amounts of data and manage it. With databases organizing such data and retrieving it becomes fast and easy.
Let's take an example where you want to create a web site to showcase your college events. You need to make sure that operations like create, read, update, and delete are possible when managing the events. You can use a database to store the events created on the frontend of your web site. Whenever you perform an operation to add, delete, or modify an event on your website, the event's record will be edited in the database and then updated on the web application.
