Advantages, Disadvantages of database management system DBMS

Expensive technical staff

if you want to maintain a database management system for you are office our organization,  then it’s not that simple task.  you need to hire a well educated and Technical database administrator for maintaining the database management system.

 Cost

We need to buy expensive hardware, software and highly paid technical database administrator.

Complexity

database systems are not very easy, database systems are complex.  there are many Complex relationships among tables. Physical schema of the databases are not very easy  to understandable

The extra cost of hardware

We need to buy expensive, Reliable, and efficient storage devices to store the data.

size

Initially, database size is not a big size but when we store a  large amount of data, then the size of the database increases. A big database can create a lot of problems.  for example when the date of the database increases too much then the delay time of the result of the database queries can be increased.

Database failure

chances of database failure can be very high.

Cost of data conversion

The cost of data conversion is very high. Train staff and train database administrators required for converting the data smoothly.

Performance

Database Performance is must required in big organizations to win the market, but in Small organization performance of databases is not ideal.

Advantages of the database management system

Reliable data integration

suppose we have data in different tables are in different databases.  still, we can integrate the data very efficiently and in reliable wa.y

Data inconsistency is minimized with the help of of database normalization.

Improve decision making

We can mind the data and get useful results from the data.   these results help us to improve our business.

 Overall increase the productivity of the end user
