To survive and achieve success, organization must exploit the information-internal and external - better than their competitors. Information is the important weapon that will help organizations to penetrate the market and beat the competition. The companies that do not realize the importance of information and do not invest in creating a good information processing system will soon be out of business. Companies that have good information systems - systems that produce information that is accurate, timely, and relevant - will survive. A database together with a database management system is the backbone of an efficient information system.
