Using a real database adds complications: the other software has to be installed and configured, and you have to build the connection to it. For less-demanding operations it is often easier to implement the database in MATLAB.

If, however, performance is an important factor, and especially if reliability of updates is a factor, or if the same database needs to be shared by multiple processes, then it is advised to use a real database.
