Answer to Question 1

A database is an integrated collection of information that is logically related and stored in such a way as to minimize duplication and facilitate rapid retrieval. Compared to a file processing system, it is more accurate and consistent. In addition, it also provides benefits such as reduced redundancy, improved information integrity, higher adaptability to changes, improved performance and scalability, and increased security. Therefore, it is preferred to a file processing system.
