Is it possible to use Firebird Embedded for small number of users

I am using Firebird on Windows (Delphi 2010 developed Application).

Is it possible to use Firebird Embedded for small number of users?

http://www.firebirdsql.org/manual/fbmetasecur-embedded.html

If we have our application with embedded firebird on a single machine (on a LAN), could multiple users (12-25) use it. Each machine running the app, pointing to the firebird database embedded with the app on the single machine? Sharing the same database?

Or is the embedded version 1 user only?

Solution

  • Starting with Firebird 2.5 multiple Firebird embedded users can connect to the same database file simultaneously.
