Database Management System

(DBMS)
and advantages of database
DBMS
 Software to create a computerised database; add, delete
and manipulate data and create forms and reports

Example of Database Management System


1. MS Access
2. Oracle
3. Sybase
4. Adabas
5. Paradox
6. Visual Fox Pro
The advantages of the database :
1. Reduced Data Redundancy
 using the database approach, all data is
stored together, which greatly reduced data
redundancy.
For example:
A school database, would only store a
student’s name an address only once.
2. Improved Data Integrity
 most data is stored in only one location, the

database approach increases the data’s


integrity by reducing the likelihood of
introducing inconsistencies.
 When data in the database is changed, all

applications have access to the same updated


data.
3. Shared Data
 Whereas each application in a file processing
environment has its own set of files, the data in
a database environment belongs to and is
shared by the entire organization.

4. Reduced Development Time


 A database organizes data more efficiently
than a file processing system.
 thus it often easier and faster to develop
programs that use this data.
5. Easier Reporting
 the database approach allows nontechnical

user to access and manipulate data.
