somewhat OT - firebird vs postgres, and php support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
I have just learnt about the firebird project and was wondering how
alive it is. I know this is hard to quantify, but is development going
better worse than postgres? I quite frankly don't like mysql that much
and defintely want something like one of these two, but the simple
fact of the matter is that I heard of postgres a long time ago, and
firebird only today. Does that mean I have my head in a dark, smelly
place, or that firebird is not as active? Will there still be people
developing firebird in 10yrs? At a quick glance php support looks to
be at least as strong for firebird, but a lot of things seem to be for
interbase - are they always going to be compatible? I see pear db has
support for interbase, does that mean firebird too, or just the latest
interbase?

Cheers
Antoine
