* Stands for "Database Management System." In short‚ a DBMS is a database program. Technically speaking‚ it is a software system that uses a standard method of cataloging‚ retrieving‚ and running queries on data. The DBMS manages incoming data‚ organizes it‚ and provides ways for the data to be modified or extracted by users or other programs. Some DBMS examples include MySQL‚ PostgreSQL‚ Microsoft Access‚ SQL Server‚ FileMaker‚ Oracle‚ RDBMS‚ dBASE‚ Clipper‚ and FoxPro. Since there are

manage large volumes of business data. The use of database systems in supporting applications that employ query based report generation continues to be the main traditional use of this technology. However‚ the size and volume of data being managed raises new and interesting issues. Can we utilize methods wherein the data can help businesses achieve competitive advantage‚ can the data be used to model underlying business processes‚ and can we gain insights from the data to help improve business processes

A DBMS coordinates both the physical and the logical access to the data‚ whereas a file-processing system coordinates only the physical access. * A DBMS reduces the amount of data duplication by ensuring that a physical piece of data is available to all programs authorized to have access to it‚ whereas data written by one program in a file-processing system may not be readable
