Unlikely. An "enterprise-wide" RDBS usually involves local data being stored remotely, the tendancy is to increase network traffic and decrease performance. An RDBS will have facilities to ensure confidentiality - however ad-hoc arrangements can do this too. An enterprise-wide solution is likely to reduce redundancy and thus reduce disk space usage. However thios is not the most important benefit. An enterprise-wide RDBS eliminates redundancy (copies of data). This in turn avoids the possibility inconsistency in the data. Unlikely. An "enterprise-wide" RDBS usually involves local data being stored remotely, the tendancy is to increase network traffic and decrease performance. Which of the following is the most important advantage of an "enterprise-wide" relational database management system compared against an ad-hoc arrangement?
