About

CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) is an acronym for ways one can operate on stored data; it is a mnemonic for the four basic functions of persistent storage1. It refers to operations performed in a database or datastore, but it can also apply to higher level functions of an application such as soft deletes where data is not actually deleted but marked as deleted via a status.
