Overview

EDB is a common short for the Exchange Database File. It is the main database storage for Exchange Server. From the start, this system is built on a client-server model. It stores user data including emails, attachments, folders, and files. The Exchange server takes advantage of the Extensible Storage Engine.

Including emails, events, contacts, notebooks, and so on, it strategically keeps all the data from the inbox.

Though it is sometimes known as JET Blue, its abbreviation is Extensible Storage Engine.

The Exchange Server uses the file format used for the storage of the EDB databases.

As such, it is described as a MAPI-based database since Outlook can keep messages received by MAPI clients.

The Exchange Database keeps several B- B-Trees saved.

The version 2000 of the Exchange Database makes use of pub1. EDB, sometimes known as a public folder; the version 2003 of the database makes use of priv1. EDB is sometimes known as a private folder.

Whereas the Public Folder Database. edb file is utilized in the 2010 version, data is stored in the Exchange Server Database 2007 edition in the mailbox database. edb file.

The 2013 edition’s Mailbox Database Name system saves both public and private data.

Should the data get corrupted, command-line tools such as ISINTEG and ESEUTIL can help to correct the data.
