Does anyone here have any experience with Interbase in a production
environment? We are trying to decide which database to deploy in
production. Since we are a very low budget operation, we are looking at
Open Source, but somehow missed this one.
Our most important requirements are stability, transaction support, a solid
JDBC driver (for use with an EJB server) and online backup capability.
Any experiences people can offer would be appreciated, especially in a
Linux environment.
Thanks!
Jim
