What is Passive information systems?

Passive information systems are systems designed to collect, store, and manage data without actively influencing or interacting with the environment or users. They primarily serve as repositories of information, allowing users to retrieve data as needed rather than prompting or guiding user actions. Examples include databases, data warehouses, and archival systems that provide access to historical data without real-time analytics or interaction. These systems are essential for maintaining records and supporting decision-making processes based on past information.
