Ultra-fast Performance

InterBase is one of the fastest native databases available. Using its built in symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), InterBase can take advantage of today's multi-core CPUs and multi-CPU systems. Performance enhancements and optimizations have been added in a number of areas, such as restoring databases, batch updates, and queries. InterBase uses a multi-generational architecture providing unique versioning capabilities that result in high data availability for transaction processing and decision support – simultaneously.

Close Integration with Best-of-breed Application Development Tools

InterBase supports all major development paradigms including Java, C, C++, .NET, Delphi, PHP and Ruby. It integrates closely to C++Builder, RAD Studio, and Delphi so that when you deploy your RAD projects to any platform, InterBase will automatically deploy with it. If you are a Visual Studio developer you can work with InterBase via the ADO. NET or ODBC connectors for easy access to your data.

Put Your Database on the Cloud or Keep it Local

Take advantage of the power of Cloud and deploy InterBase in a cloud computing environment so that your application can obtain instant access to resources. Or keep it local for higher security and higher performance.
