What are the advantages of a database?

[Maryjgodfrey]

The DBMS serves as the intermediary between the user and the database. The database structure itself is stored as a collection of files, and the only way to access the data in those files is through the DBMS. The DBMS receives all application requests and translates them into the complex operations required to fulfill those requests. The DBMS hides much of the database’s internal complexity from the application programs and users.

A collection of files results to a database ... or one can say a platform for storing your data & necessary files..

• Improved data access to users through use of host and query languages
• Improved data security
• Reduced data entry, storage, and retrieval costs
• Facilitated development of new applications program

Compared to what? A file system? A DBMS is designed to store a lot of data and to be able to retrieve that data in different formats quickly and efficiently. To do this by yourself with b-trees is difficult and if you have to relate this data together, then it makes sense just to use a DBMS.
