The Importance of Database Management Systems to Business

  The Importance of Database Management Systems to Business A friend of mine called me a few days ago and complained about how a flood had entered his business center and destroyed many documents of people who had bought his products on credit. I felt sorry for him and kept saying, "I wish you were using a computer to store the names of those people; now you could have retrieved their data and reached out to them." As a Data Analyst, I tried to explain to my friend the need for a Database Management System for his business. He was confused and asked me many questions about Database Management Systems, and here is my response to all his questions: A Database Management System (DBMS) is a software program that allows you to define, create, maintain, and manipulate databases. It's a crucial tool for storing, organizing, and retrieving data efficiently and securely. The reasons why it's important for businesses are: 1.

A friend of mine called me a few days ago and complained about how a flood had entered his business center and destroyed many documents of people who had bought his products on credit.

A Database Management System (DBMS) is a software program that allows you to define, create, maintain, and manipulate databases. It's a crucial tool for storing, organizing, and retrieving data efficiently and securely. The reasons why it's important for businesses are:


1. It allows business managers and consultants to retrieve previous business data.

2. It helps businesses organize data in a way that makes it easier for the company to access.

3. It stores business data, enabling data analysts to make informed decisions and provide business owners with valuable insights and data-driven recommendations.

4. It controls access and ensures data integrity and privacy.

5. It supports regular backups and quick recovery in case of failures.


In summary, a Database Management System is a powerful tool for managing and utilizing data, enabling efficient storage, retrieval, and manipulation of data while ensuring security, integrity, and scalability. 


My friend was excited to learn new ways of managing his business and gave me $100.

How darkness can destroy your dreams

 LIFE IN DARKNESS IS DEATH I had this inspiration two weeks ago when I was searching for my phone cable. The cable was in my bag, I searched everywhere in the bag and I couldn't found it because I was  in a dark room. I could remember, I spent much time looking for the cable in a dark room. But the moment I took my bag to where light shone I found  it. What am I trying to tell you, being in darkness can keep you in a particular place for a long time and can kill you before your time. Remember I spent much time searching for my phone cable in a dark room and I was stressed and confused. I believe, I wouldn't have found it if I didn't take it to where light was. Darkness can be ignorance, past mistakes, doubt, fear, unwillingness to learn etc. I will like you to  examine yourself if you are struggling with  all l listed above. Most of our young people are struggling in darkness. So, I charge young people to say no to DARKNESS! Know who you are, what you can do ver...

LESSON FROM CODING

 Lesson from coding I like it when my instructor started this class at Grand Style Computer Academy, being a person who loves computer, I was in love with  computer especially when it comes to web development. This is how it started, I learnt the skill of coding from my instructor in the person of Obong Nkem, I knew that I would become one of the best computer users who can  develop a website that attract the world's attention like my mentor. It was not easy from the beginning, I can still remember how I used to go to school by 6am just to attend web development classes. How to be the best web developer was ringing in my mind everyday I woke up, I can remember how I stayed with my laptop from 7pm to 2am just to learn how to put image on my website which I spent one week to developed it. The truth is, I couldn't put image on my website because my coding was wrong. Sometimes, I would be angry with my sisters who were in the room very close to my room. STOP MAKING A NOISE wa...
