A database management system (DBMS) is computer software designed for the purpose of managing databases. Typical examples of DBMSs include Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, and FileMaker. DBMSs are typically used by Database administrators in the creation of Database systems.
A relational database management system (RDBMS) is a database management system (DBMS) that is based on the relational model as introduced by Edgar F. Codd. Relational databases are the most common kind of database in use today (assuming one does not count a file system as a database).

RDB is Rang De Basanti. Its unfortunate that this movie doesn't make it to oscar. It was a good patriotic movie.
I think RDBMS and DBMS are something to do with DataBases. DataBases are huge softwares whcih taook lot of memory, and makes servers slow. But they are essentials some times.

All answers are close but missing one important factor. A database can be a flatfile, where everything is in text and seperated by a pipe | or comma , This is a basic database for say contact names and numbers, etc. With a Relational Database you have your content stored in individual fields. This will allow you to call relevant (related) information and show it as one report. Let's say you want to see every person who has an area code starting with 607, this is the relation that will compile the form from the fields of the database. With a flat file, you will only get the record you are looking at at that time, and no others are related to it in the database. Of course you can sort a database using flat file by ascenddinig numbers, but it shows every record instead of just those relevant to the querry. Hope this helps

RDBMS is advanced version of DBMS.
Full Form:
Relational Database Management System.
In RDBMS you can relate one table with another with the help of foriegn key. if two tables are being related foriegn key is the key which is used to refer the primary key of other table.
RDBMS also uses various NORMAL FORMS to descibe the database
