If you are serious about learning about OpenEdge databases, read the Database Essentials manual in the OpenEdge documentation library. It has the answers to a lot of the questions you are asking. Chapter 3 has descriptions of OpenEdge DB files and components, including brokers, so skip forward to that if you have a burning need to know what a broker is. However you should read the entire manual, in order, to get the best understanding from it.
Once you have read that manual entirely, and understood it, move on to the Database Administration manual.
