1.3 DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM(DBMS)
We have already understood the terms data and database. There are thousands of records
of students in a school over the years which need to be stored in such a manner that every

time someone requires some information about any particular student at any point of time,
our database gives the accurate and desired details/information.

Now, here comes the need for a system that is used to manage a huge amount of data/
information in an organisation over a long period of time without compromising with the
accuracy of the data. The answer is Database Management System.

DBMS: Its full form is Database Management System and it is a software system which
is used to create, edit, delete, search data in a database. There are various examples

of DBMS softwares such as MS-Access, Base in LibreOffice, Oracle, MySQL, etc.

We will work in Base DBMS software which is packaged in LibreOffice.
