What is Database Management System (DBMS)?


To learn about DBMS it is important to know about data and database. Data is any facts or statistics which have a hidden meaning that can be recorded and  database is the collection of inter connected data(Juneja, 2022). Database Management System is a system software that allows the end users to create, protect, read, update and delete data in a database(Mullins, 2021). The software that is used to manage database is called Database Management System.

Types of Database Management System

There are different types of database management system. Here are list of some common database management system:

   1. Hierarchical database 
   2. Network database
   3. Relational databases 
   4. Object-oriented databases 
   5. Graph databases
   6. ER model databases 
   7. Document databases
   8. NoSQL databases(Panwar, 2022)

Advantages of Database Management System (DBMS)

  •   A database management system can store and retrieve data in a variety of ways.
  •   A DBMS is a dependable manager for managing several applications that use the same data.
  •   Database Management System ensures data integrity and security.
  •   DBMS provides us with higher quality data that allows us to make more intelligent judgements.
  •  DBMS is responsible for taking backups.


   Disadvantages of Database Management System

  • The cost of DBMS hardware and software is really high.
  • A database management system is insufficient for performing sophisticated mathematical calculations.
  • Many users using the same application at the same time can lead to data loss.
  • DBMS are difficult and complicated (Prasanna, 2022).

Welcome Post

  My name is Fizu Rijal. I belong from the beautiful country Nepal which is blessed by the gorgeous mountains of Himalayas and the extensive vegetation and foliage of Terai and Hilly regions. Talking about myself I completed my Higher Secondary School from National School Of Sciences in Nepal. I have always been interested in learning computer science since my school days, where we were taught BASIC since then I love programming. The dream of pursuing degree in computer science is driven by my deep interest and curiosity about software development and various computer applications. Another important reason is the scope of computer science which provides a great career opportunities all around the world. Computer Science is a growing field and I believe learning computing will make me more competent so   I chose to study it. Besides engaging myself in computer work, I also love travelling different places, learning and knowing more about people, their cultures, and their way of living.
