Some of the functions and services, provided by default, may not be necessary to support essential organizational operations (e.g., key missions, functions).It is detrimental for software products to provide, or install by default, functionality exceeding requirements or mission objectives.
DBMSs must adhere to the principles of least functionality by providing only essential capabilities.
