to define, create, maintain and control access to the database.

Advantages of DBMS.

made will reflects everywhere. There is no chance of duplicate data.
2. Data consistency: Data consistency is ensured in a database because there is no
data redundancy.
Ans 3. Efficient data access: fast andaccurate data access. 5
4. Data integrity: Data integrity refers to the overall completeness, accuracy and
consistency of data in the database.
5. Data security: use of passwords, the information in a database is made available
only to authorized persons.
6. Sharing of data:The data stored in the database can be shared among several users
or programs even simultaneously and each may use it for different purposes.
7. Enforcement of standards: With central control of the database, a Database
Administrator (DBA) defines and enforces the necessary standards.
8. Crash recovery: DBMS provides some mechanism to recover data from the crashes.
