I want to know that what is difference between database management system & file management system can you provide me web link their I can get detail information about difference between database management system & file management system?

I am computer science student and want details about database management. Will you tell is there any difference between Database Management System and File System?

DBMS

Database Management System (DBMS) is a software that makes it easier to store, manipulate and retrieve data in a database.

A database stores data in tables. Therefore, DBMS stores data according to a structure.

DBMS allows users to use Structured Query Language (SQL). It helps to issue queries to insert, update, select and delete data instantly.

File System

A file system handles the way of reading and writing data to the hard disk. The file system is installed into the computer with the operating system.

Operating systems such as Windows and Linux have their own file system. New Technology File System (NTFS) is the Windows file system

Difference

The main difference between file system and DBMS is that the file system helps to store a collection of raw data files into the hard disk while the DBMS helps to easily store, retrieve and manipulate data in a database.

Other difference:

File system has data inconsistency whereas DBMS provides higher data consistency using normalization.

There is more redundant data in a file system whereas there is low data redundancy in a DBMS.

DBMS provides more security to the data than the file system.

Backup and recovery process is not efficient in files system because it is not possible to recover the lost data. On the contrary, a DBMS has a sophisticated backup and recovery.
