Chapter 0 An Overview of a Database Management System Course: Database Management Systems What is a DBMS? The power of database comes from a body of knowledge and technology that has developed over several decades and is embodied in a specialized software called a database management system, or DBMS. A DBMS is a powerful tool for creating and managing large amount of data efficiently and allowing it to persist over long periods of time safely. DBMS Capabilities The capabilities that a DBMS provides the user are: Persistent Storage. A DBMS supports the storage of very large amounts of data that exists independently of any processes that are using the data. Programming Interface. A DBMS allows the user to access and modify data through a powerful query language. Transaction management. A DBMS supports concurrent access to data, ., .
