Firebird is a relational database management system that offers high performance, flexibility, and scalability. It is an open source project and can be used on a variety of platforms and operating systems such as Linux, Windows, and MacOS. Firebird is also a cross-platform database system that provides a robust, scalable, and reliable database solution for small to large businesses. It is designed to be easy to use and administer, even for non-technical users. Firebird supports standard SQL syntax and transactional processing without requiring any manual intervention. It provides several tools for database administration, including a command line interface, a graphical database manager, and a web-based administration tool. It also supports replication, which allows data to be synchronised between multiple databases in real-time, providing robust disaster recovery options.
What is Firebird 4.0.0?
Firebird 4.0.0 is an open source SQL relational database management system that runs on Linux, Microsoft Windows, macOS and several UNIX platforms. It was released by Borland Software Corp, formerly known as Inprise Corp, and developed in C and C++. Firebird offers many ANSI SQL standard features, allows simultaneous OLTP and OLAP operations through its multi-generational architecture, and supports stored procedures and triggers, among other features.
One of the key features of Firebird is its ability to handle large volumes of data. It provides flexible and powerful indexing and sorting mechanisms that help optimise the performance of the database, even when working with a large number of records.
