Loading...Firebird supports viagra user :-)
Just kidding again. a friend of mine told me about an installation in his german insurance company that requires a firebird installation. After googling for some details i found that the german medical info system “gelbe liste” (yellow list) installs a firebird server with each installation. On their website i found some impressing details: http://www.mmi.de/fileadmin/download/Tarifkarten_2008.pdf
there are about 100000 doctors using this from CD ROM in germany and the company produces about 400000 CD ROMs for these users each year, every 3 month a new one.
again a very good background information for discussing with your management about “what is firebird?”.
See you

Maybe a few people know (or use it), but anyone can actually influence in what new features should appear in the next FB version, or what bug should get priority in fixing, etc. This can be done in the Firebird Tracker. The “Find Issues” menu item can be easily used to find out what new features, improvements or bugs are already registered. Of course, you can register new tickets if your issue isn’t listed yet. To increase the priority, you need to be logged-in and VOTE for it.

Hacker finds 492,000 unprotected Oracle, SQL database servers
You can protect your Firebird server by blocking (Firewall) internet access to port 3050 in your database server. Changing the Firebird port to other than the default one may also help to difficult attacks.

An interesting story and discussion on ZDNet:
If you’re taking software free and buying support from elsewhere, the guys who built the program can’t eat, unless they find a way to get a rake-off from the support team’s revenue. Which isn’t going to happen. Or start charging you directly for their code updates, which might.
It would be interesting so see ideas discussed there apply to Firebird in any way.
