You completely misunderstood the announcement. The Firebird Butler is a thing that we develop. It's a joined effort primarily driven by IBPhoenix and IBSurgeon as part of Firebird Project (these companies are currently the main drivers, but others are welcome) initiated by their internal need and in scope of mutual interests with Firebird Project they are part of. It's done as open source so everyone could benefit from our joined effort, but it's not developed for our or public entertainment or without business angle that makes sense for those involved. It's designed as it's designed because it makes sense for those involved, it solves (or should solve) problems they face. So far, there is no single line of code available to public that you could use. Although IBPhoenix (and IBSurgeon as well) has wagons of various internal tools and code for many Firebird-related and other purposes, they are not (yet) adapted to Butler architecture. Anyway we have a neat pool of code and proven ideas to draw from to move forward quickly once the SDK(s) would be ready. Anyone is welcome to watch what we will do (the easiest way is to sign-up for Butler list(s), and watch Butler web and git repositories). If you will see a value in what we will do, you are free to use it, or join our effort if you want to have an influence on where its going. Also, new ideas and questions are welcome at appropriate place and in proper form. Usual open source business. However, at current state of affairs, it's a time for architects and designers who see potential in our selected approach and would like to participate on such thing to step in and share ideas at Butler list. Once first SDK would be ready, no much space would be left to introduce completely new ideas or designs (that one would like to try or needs) to see it implemented. Once SDK(s) would be ready, anyone is welcome to play with it to see how it could be used for their own purposes. That same apply when first services we have in our plan would be provided. However, if anyone wants to have something we plan to do earlier or to have influence what would be implemented and how, the best option is to get involved in a way and to the extent that would suit their needs. I.e. open source business as usual. > But without real introduction i will stay with REST/Windows services based on > Delphi. > Thay work for me for e.g. IOT with big traffic and any problems. You are welcome to use whatever you see fit for your purposes. But either REST or Widnows services are NOT good enough for IBPhoenix purposes (I could not speak for others). best regards Pavel Cisar IBPhoenix
