FBOpt 3.0 released!
IBPhoenix FBOpt is a command-line tool for optimising Firebird databases. The tool addresses some aspects of the internal structure of databases that the Firebird engine itself cannot rectify, and some issues that survive even a backup and restore with gbak.
Beside optimization, FBOpt can be also used to upgrade or downgrade databases between Firebird versions (ODS structures), convert databases to new default character set, or to create regular gbak database backups with simultaneous restore.
A 14-day trial version is also available in our store.
The first issue of EmberWings Magazine about Firebird is here !
Beyond technical articles, instructions and tips, it contains interviews with noteworthy individuals, an overview of Firebird's development, information from the Firebird community, evaluations of compelling products, and a touch of thematic humor. All of this presented in a streamlined format with an aesthetically pleasing print-friendly layout.
The magazine is available in our store for free on a pay-what-you-want basis, with half of the proceeds going to the Firebird Foundation. The remaining half is used to finance the publication of the magazine.
