Description-en: Firebird Super Server - an RDBMS based on InterBase 6.0 code
Firebird is a relational database offering many ANSI SQL-99 features that
runs on Linux, Windows, and a variety of Unix platforms. Firebird offers
excellent concurrency, high performance, and powerful language support
for stored procedures and triggers. It has been used on production systems
under a variety of names since 1981.
.
The "super" architecture uses separate threads to handle each connection.
It has its advantages (eg: is usually faster and more efficient for large
numbers of clients) but is unable to use more that one CPU on an SMP
system and under some circumstances a client may crash all server threads.
.
This package contains the 2.5 branch of Firebird.
.
Firebird is a commercially independent project of C and C++ programmers,
technical advisors and supporters developing and enhancing a multi-platform
relational database management system based on the source code released by
Inprise Corp (now known as Borland Software Corp) under the InterBase Public
License v.1.0 on 25 July, 2000.
