Native Connectivity to InterBase

IBDAC-based DB applications are easy to deploy, do not require installation of other data provider layers (such as BDE or ODBC), and that's why they can work faster than the ones based on standard Delphi data connectivity solutions.

Cross-Platform Solution for Delphi, C++Builder, and Lazarus

IBDAC is a cross-platform solution for developing applications using various IDEs: RAD Studio, Delphi, C++Builder, Lazarus (and FPC) on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, Android, and FreeBSD for both x86 and x64 platforms. IBDAC also provides support for the FireMonkey platform, which allows you to develop visually spectacular high-performance desktop and mobile native applications.

Wide Coverage of InterBase and Firebird Features

IBDAC allows developers to optimize their database applications and harness the full capabilities of the InterBase and Firebird servers. IBDAC provides complete support of InterBase and Firebird Blobs and Arrays, Unicode character data, and events.

Performance

All our components and libraries are designed to help you write high-performance, lightweight data access layers, therefore they use advanced data access algorithms and techniques of optimization.

Mobile Development

Development for iOS and Android mobile devices using IBDAC becomes still easier, as IBDAC allows your mobile applications to work with InterBase database as simply as desktop applications do.

IDE Compatibility

Our product is compatible with the latest IDE versions and editions including Community Edition: Embarcadero RAD Studio 12 Athens, Delphi 12 Athens, C++ Builder 12 Athens, Lazarus (and FPC). It is also compatible with the previous IDE versions since Delphi 6 and C++Builder 6.

Data Type Mapping

If you want to make custom correspondence between InterBase and Delphi data types, you can use a simple and flexible Data Type Mapping engine provided by IBDAC.

Development Platforms

All major GUI frameworks supported: develop VCL applications for Windows or cross-platform FMX applications in Delphi, as well as LCL applications for Windows, macOS, or Linux in Lazarus.

Database Compatibility

Our product supports InterBase server versions from 4.2 to 2020, and Firebird 1.x, 2.x, 3.x, 4.x.

Monitoring

Use our freeware dbMonitor tool to monitor and analyze all the DB calls made by your application using IBDAC. dbMonitor performs per­component tracing of SQL statement execution, commits, rollbacks, etc.
