A database management system (DBMS) is software designed to develop and manage the data stored in databases. A database is a collection of organized data, normally stored electronically within a computer. The database management system organizes the data and allows a person to access, manage, and alter it. It also supports and controls additional compatible tools in the form of software and apps. Businesses need different types of database management systems to track their business transactions quickly and efficiently. A DBMS manages data on services, transactions, sales, and customers. Additionally, it allows managers to access their data when making real-time decisions.
