Firebird 2.5: The Real and The Only alternative to #MySQL

October 14, 2010 mariuz Leave a comment

The Firebird 2.5 article is in Italian language
And here is the translation (with highlights from Firebird 2.5 press release)

l progetto Firebird ha da poco annunciato il rilascio della versione 2.5 del suo database relazionale opensource.

Le novità di questa release sono abbastanza interessanti ma ovviamente gli sforzi maggiori sono stati fatti per migliorare l’affidabilità, le performance e la scalabilità del database. Philippe Makowski, presidente della fondazione non-profit Firebird Foundation ha dichiarato che il rilascio di Firebird 2.5 è un passo importante sia per il progetto stesso, visto che cade in questi giorni il suo decimo anni di vita, che per l’intero mondo opensource.

D’altronde, come dargli torto: la comunità sta cercando ormai da un bel po’ di tempo un degno sostituto di MySQL che, nonostante i proclami di Oracle, pare sempre più lontano dall’iniziale predisposizione all’opensource. “Molti nostri clienti utilizzano senza grossi problemi database Firebird che spaziano dai 200 ai 400GB”, ha dichiarato Stewart Sping, CTO della Watermark Software. “I miglioramenti delle performance di Firebird 2.5 permetteranno sicuramente di raggiungere risultati ancora più entusiasmanti”. Firebird 2.5 è disponibile sotto forma di pacchetti binari per piattaforme Windows e Linux a 32 e 64 bit. Maggiori informazioni e download sono disponibili su questa pagina

Dot Net Performance of Firebird 2.1

May 30, 2008 mariuz Leave a comment

Comparing the performance of several operations in FB2.1, OraXE and SQLServerXE using the vendor specific .NET data access drivers, I discovered Firebird was about 3 times faster than the others which were both nearly the same speed.
