Discuss a real life scenario you faced using Conventional File Processing System and write the advantage and disadvantages basis on your problem.
Re: Forum Discussion about pros and cons of Conventional File Processing System
Advantage of (CFPS)
Cost friendly: There is very minimal to ni set up and usage fee for (CFPS)
Easy to use: File system require very basic learning and understanding hence can be easily used.
High scalability : one can very early swich form smaller to larger file as per his needs.
Disadvantage of (CFPS)
Slow access time: Direct access of files is very difficult and one needs to know the entire hieranche of golders to get a specigic file.
Presence of redant data : the same data can be present in two or more files which up more disc space.
Inconsistent daya: Due to data redundancy same. Data stored at fifferent places might not match to each other.
Lack of atomicity: Operations performed in the database must be atomic. Earler the operation takes place as a whole or does not take place at all.

this means, it must happen in its entirely or not at all.
7. Concurrent Access Anomalies:
Multiple users are allowed to access data simultaneously.this is for the sake of better performance and faster response.
8. Security Problems:
Database should be accessible to users in limited way.
Each user should be allowed to access data concerning his requirements only.
Re: Forum Discussion about pros and cons of Conventional File Processing System
Pros:
1. Data backup is easier.
2. Data can be stored compactly.
3. Editing data is easier.
Cons:
1. Data redundancy.
2. Data inconsistency.
3.Difficulty in accessing data.
4.Integrity problems.
5. Data isolation.
Re: Forum Discussion about pros and cons of Conventional File Processing System
1. Backup:
It is possible to take faster and automatic back-up of database stored in files of computer-based systems
2. Compactness:
It is possible to store data compactly.
3. Data Retrieval:
Computer-based systems provide enhanced data retrieval techniques to retrieve data stored in files in easy and efficient way.
4. Editing:
It is easy to edit any information stored in computers in form of files.
5. Remote Access:
In computer-based systems,it is possible to access data remotely.
6. Sharing:
Data stored in files of computer-based systems ca be shared among multiple users at a same time.
Disadvantage
1. Data Redundancy:
It is possible that the same information may be duplicated in different files.this leads to data redundancy results in memory wastage.
2. Data Inconsistency:
Because of data redundancy,it is possible that data may not be in consistent state.
3. Difficulty in Accessing Data:
Accessing data is not convenient and efficient in file processing system.
4. Security Problems:
Database should be accessible to users in limited way.
Re: Forum Discussion about pros and cons of Conventional File Processing System
Converting file processing system is a way of storing retieving and manipulating data which is present in vatious files. Files are used to store vatious documents.
Advantage of (CFPS)
Cost friendly: There is very minimal to ni set up and usage fee for (CFPS)
Easy to use: File system require very basic learning and understanding hence can be easily used.
High scalability : one can very early swich form smaller to larger file as per his needs.
Disadvantage of (CFPS)
Slow access time: Direct access of files is very difficult and one needs to know the entire hieranche of golders to get a specigic file.
Presence of redant data : the same data can be present in two or more files which up more disc space.
Inconsistent daya: Due to data redundancy same. Data stored at fifferent places might not match to each other.
Lack of atomicity: Operations performed in the database must be atomic. Earler the operation takes place as a whole or does not take place at all.
Database management system isbused to eliminate the disadvantage of thel (CFPS)
