CAB Data Base Management System

DBMS is utilization of a set of computer program which control the various activities like  creation, maintenance, and the use of a database . A DBMS is a system software package that helps the use of integrated collection of data records and files known as databases. It allows different user application programs to easily access the same database.  It addresses problems such as security, accuracy, consistency among different records, response time, and memory requirements. DBMS is designed to manage a large body of information. Data management involves both defining structures for storing information and providing mechanisms for manipulating the information. 
 Features of DBMS 
  • DBMS can prevent unauthorized users from viewing or updating the database thus data security
  •  DBMS ensures that no more than one user can update the same record at the same time. It can keep duplicate records out of the database.
  •  DBMS provides a query language and report writer that lets users interactively interrogate the database.
  •  DBMS provides a way to interactively enter and edit data, allowing you to manage your own files and databases.
  Database design is the process of organizing  data into related record types. The DBMS that is chosen is the one that can support the organization's data structure while efficiently processing the transaction volume.
