It is better to use files than a DBMS when there are

  • A.Stringent real-time requirements
  • B.Multiple users wish to access the data
  • C.Complex relationships among data
  • D.All of the above.

Answer: B

Correct answer: Stringent real-time requirements

A DBMS adds layers - query processing, locking, logging - and with them latency that is hard to bound. Where an application must guarantee a response within a few microseconds, direct file access is more predictable. The other two options are arguments for a DBMS, not against: concurrent access and complex relationships are exactly what it exists to manage.
