I am looking for an open database, obligatory an up-to-dated one, which includes all discovered stars and their parameters.

2$\begingroup$ The answer is no. Your best bet if you know where the star is (or what its name is), is to interrogate SIMBAD simbad.u-strasbg.fr/simbad $\endgroup$– ProfRobNov 16, 2017 at 18:58

As @ProfRob already stated, there is no single star database with all parameters. Here are some resources:
- SIMBAD Astronomical Database
- GAIA Archive "providing astrometry, photometry, and spectroscopy of more than 1000 million stars in the Milky Way."
A helpful and extensive collection of online resources is collected as community wiki answer to the question Where can I find the positions of the planets, stars, moons, artificial satellites, etc. and visualize them?
