Advantage of File-oriented system:
1. Backup:
It is possible to take faster and automatic back-up of database stored in files of computer-based systems.
computer systems provide functionalities to serve this purpose.it is also possible to develop specific application program for this purpose.
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.
Specific application programs or editing software can be used for this purpose.
5. Remote Access:
In computer-based systems,it is possible to access data remotely.
so,to access data it is not necessary for a user to remain present at location where these data are kept.
6. Sharing:
Data stored in files of computer-based systems ca be shared among multiple users at a same time.
Tech Tip :
Migrate your SQL server onto the cloud hosted citrix vdi from Apps4Rent available unbelievable citrix xendesktop pricing and get an easy remote access to it from anywhere on any device(PC/Mac/Linux/android/iOS) powered by one of the leading providers of Office 365 – O365CloudExperts.

Disadvantage of File-oriented system:
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. Limited Data Sharing:
Data are scattered in various files.also different files may have different formats and these files may be stored in different folders may be of different departments.
So, due to this data isolation, it is difficult to share data among different applications.
5. Integrity Problems:
Data integrity means that the data contained in the database in both correct and consistent.for this purpose the data stored in database must satisfy correct and constraints.
6. Atomicity Problems:
Any operation on database must be atomic.
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

by Sifat Ul Haque -
A small business company like local shops can use Conventional File Processing System where they are not using any database to store client information. Benefits or advantages of using this is that they don't need to invest in a DBMS Software for their shops and if they are able to handle their clients with that traditional method there is no need for them to change it to a DBMS model. Disadvantages of Conventional File Processing Systems include problems like duplication of data, the inconsistency of data, less opportunity to maintain/update data accordingly, less or zero maintenance ability. If we can implement a DBMS Software in our respective works, it is wiser to settle for one rather than using the Conventional File Processing System because it makes our data more secure and robust.

Disadvantages of Conventional File Processing Systems include problems like duplication of data, the inconsistency of data, less opportunity to maintain/update data accordingly, less or zero maintenance ability. If we can implement a DBMS Software in our respective works, it is wiser to settle for one rather than using the Conventional File Processing System because it makes our data more secure and robust.

Advantage of file processing system:
1.Backup.
2.Compactness.
3.Data Retrieval.
4.Editing.
5.Remote Access.



Disadvantage of file processing system:
1. Data Redundancy
2. Data Inconsistency.
3. Difficulty in Accessing Data.
4. Limited Data Sharing.
5. Integrity Problems.
6. Atomicity Problems.

In daily life, we come across various needs to store data. It can be maintaining daily household bills, bank account details, salary details, payment details, student information, student reports, books in the library, etc. It should be recorded in such a way that

1. Should be able to get the data any point in time latter
2. Should be able to add details to it whenever required
3. Should be able to modify stored information, as needed
4. Should also be able to delete them

so,to access data it is not necessary for a user to remain present at location where these data are kept.
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. Limited Data Sharing:
Data are scattered in various files.also different files may have different formats and these files may be stored in different folders may be of different departments.
So, due to this data isolation, it is difficult to share data among different applications.
5. Integrity Problems:
Data integrity means that the data contained in the database in both correct and consistent.for this purpose the data stored in database must satisfy correct and constraints.
6. Atomicity Problems:
Any operation on database must be atomic.
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.

Advantage of File-based system:
1. Backup: Backup:
It is possible to take quicker and more automated backup of databases contained in operating system archives.

Computer programs have features for this purpose. It is also possible to create a particular programming software for this purpose.

2. Compactness of the:

Data can be stored compactly.

3. File recovery:

Computer-based applications provide improved data storage methods to quickly and effectively access data contained in archives.

4. Editing the:

All information contained in computers in the form of files can be quickly edited.

For this function, special application programs or editing tools can be used.

5. Remote Access to:

Data can be viewed remotely in computer-based applications.

In order to view the data, it is not mandatory for the user to be present at the location where the data is stored.

6. Sharing the:

Data contained in computer device files can be exchanged between several users at the same time.

Disadvantage in File-based system:
1. File Redundance:
It is likely that the same information will be duplicated in different archives. This leads to data fragmentation resulting in memory wastage.

2. Inconsistency of data:

Owing to data redundancy, data may not be in a stable state.

3. Difficulty of Data Access:

In the file processing system, accessing data is not easy and efficient.

4. Limited Exchange of Data:

Data is distributed in various directories. Also, these files can have different formats and these files may be stored in different directories in different departments.

As a result of this data separation, it is impossible to exchange data between different programs.

5. Problems of integrity:

Integrity of data ensures that the data found in the database is both accurate and consistent. For this reason, the data stored in the database must follow the correct and constraining criteria.
