We're excited to start our new series all about Firebird configuration. In our very first episode, we're gonna discuss the biggest error to make with Firebird: mixing up the config settings for Classic/SuperClassic and SuperServer. We'll break down why this mix-up can mess things up, how it usually happens, and, most importantly, how you can fix it.
The Configuration Calculator for Firebird has been upgraded to support Firebird 5. Now you can create optimized firebird.conf and database.conf files tailored to your specific hardware or virtual machine setup.
Free "Practical Migration Guide to Firebird 5.0", written by D.Simonov, is your go-to resource for navigating the upgrade to Firebird 5 from earlier versions like 2.5, 3.0, and 4.0. It's packed with hands-on strategies, common pitfalls, and smart solutions to get you through the migration process smoothly.
In this part, we'll show you some cool new things you can do with Firebird 5 that will make your database faster and more efficient. You'll learn about better compresssion of records, about cache of compiled statements, and more.
