File Management System (FMS)

FMS is used to work with text files and the text files will be stored in file system or operating system
( hard disk we can assume).

FMS is used to store,manage and to access the data from text file.

Drawbacks or disadvantages of FMS:

1.Lack of security:

Any one can access/use this file system and delete the files because in Filesystem the text files are made by notepad.

2.Concurrency is not possible:

For multiple users accessing a file in remote location is not possible.At any time only one user can access it.

3.Execution will be slow:


In text files if we want to read nth line it is not possible to directly read,it starts from beginning so it takes time.

these are the few drawbacks of File Management System.
