Learning management systems (LMSs) are mostly for smaller businesses that require training of employees on a smaller scale. Course management systems (CMSs) are used primarily by universities, like Full Sail University that focus on the coursework and delivery to the students. Databases are similar to that of LMSs but on a scale directly related to education and focus on course rather than content. Learning content management systems (LCMSs) are used primarily by large institutions like the military that must deliver content materials to a large amount of people/learners, such as in the four major military branches. Personal learning environments (PLEs) are more learner focused like LMSs but can easily take on qualities attributed to the other systems, depending on the amount of users.

i too enjoyed reading your post. It cleared up some things for me as I continue to try and wrap my brain around all of the different acronyms.
I like the way that you broke it down by types of users as well as benefits for choosing specific systems. This is nice "cheat sheet" of different types of systems and the differences between each product. Thank you!
