            <p>Before the advent of modern data management, organizations relied heavily on file-based systems to store and retrieve information. While this method served its initial purpose, it quickly became apparent that managing data through disparate files leads to significant operational bottlenecks. This course explores the fundamental mechanics of these legacy systems and delves into their inherent disadvantages. We will examine critical issues such as data redundancy, where duplicate information wastes storage and causes inconsistencies, as well as data isolation, which makes it difficult to connect related information across different departments. Furthermore, we will analyze the severe integrity, security, and concurrency access problems that arise when multiple users attempt to interact with unprotected, uncoordinated files simultaneously.</p>

<p>To overcome these critical limitations, the technological landscape shifted toward the database approach, a paradigm that revolutionized how organizations handle information. In the subsequent modules, we will explore the core concepts of this modern approach, highlighting the pivotal role databases play in driving business efficiency and decision-making. You will gain a deep understanding of the true meaning and value of data when it is centrally managed, secured, and easily accessible. To ensure a comprehensive grasp of these transformative concepts, your learning journey will be reinforced with a series of targeted quizzes. These assessments are designed to test your knowledge on everything from the pitfalls of legacy file systems to the strategic advantages of implementing robust database solutions in a modern business environment.</p>
