File system • File system is a method and data structure that the operating system uses to control how data is stored and retrieved. • A file system stores and organizes data and can be thought of as a type of index for all the data contained in a storage device. These devices can include hard drives, optical drives and flash drives. • File systems contain information such as the size of the file, as well as its attributes, location and hierarchy.
Role of File system File systems use metadata to store and retrieve files. • Date created • Last date of access • User ID of the file creator • Access permissions • File size
Database Management Systems • Databases are the most common way to store and manage data used by applications. • A database management system (DBMS) is a software tool that enables users to manage a database easily. • It allows users to access and interact with the underlying data in the database.
Database Management Systems DBMS Includes • Configuring authentication and authorization. • Providing data backups and snapshots. • Performance tuning. • Data recovery.
Difference Between File System & DBMS File System DBMS A file system is a software that manages and organizes the files in a storage medium. It controls how data is stored and retrieved. DBMS or Database Management System is a software application. It is used for accessing, creating, and managing databases The file system provides the details of data representation and storage of data. DBMS gives an abstract view of data that hides the details It does not offer data recovery processes. There is a backup recovery for data in DBMS The file system doesn’t have a crash recovery mechanism DBMS provides a crash recovery mechanism
Difference Between File System & DBMS File System DBMS Protecting a file system is very difficult. DBMS offers good protection mechanism In a file management system, the redundancy of data is greater. The redundancy of data is low in the DBMS system. Less complex, does not support complicated transactions More complexity in managing the data, easier to implement complicated transactions
