A DBMS is a database management system. Some of the advantages of a DBMS are, data independence, the DBMS allows the data to be accessed separately from the main software and documents and in doing so keeps the data more secure. It also allows efficient data access using varied programs and techniques to store and retrieve the data. Another advantage is data integrity, as the data is only
. accessed via the DBMS, the DBMS software can enforce the integrity of the original data. Another plus is data administration, many people can access the data at one time, but the DMBS system is always the central body. The last three advantages are concurrent access, crash recover, and reduced development time. You can find more information here: http://estudents.co.cc/database-management-systems/advantages
