An update anomaly occurs when changes to data values in a database are incorrectly recorded. This can lead to inconsistencies and errors in the database. Insert anomalies occur when it is not possible to insert certain data into a database because of missing related data. Delete anomalies occur when deleting data from a table would unintentionally delete other data as well. Memory anomalies are not a commonly recognized term in database management.
