IBExpert Firebird Replication
We implement Firebird technology-based replication for our clients. In our view, the majority of marketed all-in-one replication tools are of limited usefulness and tend to be a waste of time. Only in Firebird 4 is a basic replication integrated, but this still leaves many wishes unfulfilled.
The technology we use has already proven itself in real-world use at hundreds of locations and with databases of up to 500 GB.
Our technology can be used for all Firebird versions from 2.5 onwards and masters partial replication, the rules of which can be determined and adapted by the customer without having to define complicated INI files or GUIs. The implementation is based on Firebird stored procedures and trigger source codes, which allow our customers to extend and adapt them themselves at a later date.
It is important to us that our customers do not have to use software compiled only for this purpose!
We teach the complete process of replication that we implement in such a way that the customer acquires the ability to integrate it into his software, and to initialise and run the corresponding processes (synchronous replication in real time/synchronous replication in near real time/asynchronous replication/master-slave/master-multi-slave/multi-master) himself based on our technology according to his own specifications.
We distinguish whether our system is used, for example, only on one server as a backup, or only at locations in a corporate group, or whether the replication is to be passed on with the customer's own software to hundreds or thousands of end customer installations. Therefore, we always request a brief description of the customer structure and approximate current customer numbers where replication is to be deployed.
Our offer includes not only the replication technology implemented individually by ourselves on the basis of the customer's databases, but also a recommended on-site or remote workshop to impart the complete technology. We grant the right to unlimited distribution to end customers with your own software directly with the order confirmation, without any further complex licensing procedures.
For later extensions or adaptations to newer Firebird versions, we are available as required within the scope of our IBExpert and Firebird Hotline. Unlimited adaptations can also be carried out by the customer.
Enquiries for quotations to sales@ibexpert.biz.
Please provide us with a brief description of your application and, if possible, a metadata-only backup of your database.
| What our customers have to say about our replication: Database conversion from Firebird 2.1 to Firebird 3.0 and implementation of a database replication "Our brief was to migrate a database of about 150 GB (which originally emerged from BDE (Paradox), migrated to InterBase 6 and later from Firebird 1.0 to 2.1) to Firebird 3 within a short period of time, and construct a replication over a VPN line. ""We contacted IBExpert GmbH, who made us an offer corresponding to our budget.. "Following a detailed analysis of our database by the IBExpert Team, it unfortunately transpired that the estimated costs could not be maintained. "However, we quickly agreed to take over the necessary database reconstruction ourselves, so that we were back on budget. We received valuable and practical tips from the IBExpert team which facilitated the implementation. "In order to improve our knowledge regarding Firebird 3 and replication, we visited their Bootcamp in 2017. A great event, due to Mr. Klemt’s competence and extensive knowledge all participants took a lot of information away with them from this event and no question remained unanswered. "The database rebuild and replication implementation took place over a weekend. We could fully rely on Mr. Klemt, who was available late into the evening and who made a significant contribution to the success of the project. The replication was remotely set up by him and put into operation in the short frame available, so that on Monday the remodeled Firebird 3 database including replication was in production. "In conclusion, I would like to say that anyone wishing to replicate Firebird or seeking solutions in the database environment is in the best hands with Mr. Klemt; he does not mince words, he is competent, his training and communication is certainly not boring. He has proved to be a fair partner for us." Uwe Cramer, Intellekta GmbH |

Monitoring
(German-language version below)
IBExpert Firebird SQL Performance Monitoring
Your way out of the blind alley
The situation
- You are using Firebird-based software
- The benchmark shows that your hardware attains a reasonable speed and yet certain queries in your software take much longer than acceptable
- The server becomes slower and slower, but speeds up again after rebooting
- The time required for certain queries or software reaction time in dialogs varies
The blind alley
It is becoming increasingly difficult to work effectively with the software, but the software provider claims that this is not the fault of his software, but of your hardware, your operating system or your network etc.
Your software manufacturer provides no beneficial support, instead you have to listen to claims that you are the only one who has this problem, all other customers are satisfied.
By now you begin to doubt that the software provider is taking your concerns seriously at all.
The solution
You commission us to take a look behind the scenes, to support you in your discussions with your software provider, and to counter the repetitive excuses with objective reasoning.
With our tools and our experience we examine not only the hardware and operating system in use, but also what the database needs to handle in terms of the application’s SQL queries.
We are often rapidly able to detect SQL commands, which do not use appropriate indices or are poorly formulated.
As the size of the database increases, these effects become more and more severe, and when the data volume doubles, the SQL commands will not just take twice as long to execute, but considerably longer.
An isolated test of a query on the programmer's fast laptop, which may use only part of the database, but does not have to process queries from 20-50 or more other workstations, only helps to pass the buck to you again.
With our help, you can quickly detect whether this query or screen reaction time is at all representative of your issues.
IBExpert Firebird SQL Performance Monitoring together with our support provides a way out of this blind alley in discussions with your software provider.
Improvements
We will show you where bottlenecks occur in your system and how well your hardware/software fits and interacts with your working environment.
We can offer you and/or your software provider concrete advice on what could be improved, in order to achieve optimum performance of your Firebird database systems and software, even with large-scale customer implementations and data volumes.
Whether it is a matter of indices, optimized SQL queries or general tips and tricks, we see ourselves as a moderator between yourself and your software provider.
If, as in almost all cases where we have already successfully implemented monitoring, the software provider is prepared to work with us constructively, then you will often see significant progress already in the next software update.
We also examine your application at network protocol level, because often data is retrieved over the network that is not visible anywhere in the application software. The developer is often not even aware of this problem until we point it out to him with specific examples and offer workarounds to avoid it.
Our services
Let us, as database experts, analyse your database system and propose improvements to optimise performance. You will find that our wealth of experience will certainly offer you new aspects, so that you and your software provider will be in a position to optimize your database system.
Our common goal should be to create an optimal working environment without making poor compromises and seeking solutions, also from your software provider.
We offer our IBExpert Firebird SQL Performance Monitoring for the price of 1,200 Euros: IBExpert Firebird SQL Performance Monitoring.
Following receipt of payment we will arrange a date to start our analysis by remote maintenance and will normally let the monitoring run for 7 days or longer if desired.
You will receive a detailed report by e-mail within 72 hours following the completion of the monitoring.
Our standard offer is valid for Firebird 2.5 and upwards. For older Firebird versions please request an offer from sales@ibexpert.biz.
IBExpert Firebird SQL Performance Monitoring
Ihr Ausweg aus der Sackgasse
Das Szenario
- Sie setzen eine Firebird basierende Software ein
- Der Benchmark zeigt, dass Ihre Hardware eine akzeptable Geschwindigkeit erreicht und trotzdem dauern bestimmte Abfragen in Ihrer Software erheblich länger als man erwarten würde
- Der Server wird immer langsamer und ist aber nach einem Neustart wieder schneller
- Die Zeiten für bestimmte Abfragen oder Maskenaufbau sind unterschiedlich lang
Die Sackgasse
Ein effektives Arbeiten mit der Software wird immer schwieriger, aber der Softwarehersteller behauptet, das liegt nicht an seiner Software, sondern an Ihrer Hardware, an Ihrem Betriebssystem oder an Ihrem Netzwerk etc.
Ihr Softwarehersteller hilft Ihnen nicht und Sie müssen sich immer wieder anhören, dass Sie der einzige sind, der dieses Problem hat, alle anderen Kunden sind glücklich.
Sie zweifeln mittlerweile daran, dass der Softwarehersteller Ihre Einwände überhaupt ernst nimmt.
Die Lösung
Sie beauftragen uns, denn wir schauen hinter die Kulissen, um Ihnen in der Diskussion mit Ihrem Softwarehersteller mit Rat und Tat zur Seite zu stehen, und um die wiederholten Ausreden mit Argumenten außer Kraft zu setzen.
Mit unseren Werkzeugen und unserer Erfahrung prüfen wir neben der von Ihnen eingesetzten Hardware- und Betriebssystem-Kombination auch das, was die Datenbank an SQL-Abfragen der Anwendungsprogramme alles beantworten muss.
Oft erkennen wir sehr schnell SQL-Befehle, die keine passenden Indizes benutzen oder einfach nur in der Abfragesprache nicht sauber formuliert sind.
Mit zunehmender Datenbankgröße werden dann diese Auswirkungen immer heftiger und sämtliche SQL-Befehle werden bei Verdoppelung der Datenmenge oft nicht nur die doppelte Zeit brauchen, sondern wesentlich länger.
Ein isolierter Test einer Abfrage auf dem schnellen Laptop des Programmierers, der möglicherweise auch nur einen Teil der Datenbank dafür benutzt, aber keinesfalls Abfragen von 20-50 oder mehr anderen Arbeitsstationen bearbeiten muss, hilft dabei nur dem Softwarehersteller, Ihnen wieder den schwarzen Peter zuzuschieben.
Ob diese gezeigte Abfrage oder Maske überhaupt Ihr Problem darstellt, werden sie mit unserer Hilfe sehr schnell feststellen.
Das IBExpert Firebird SQL Performance Monitoring liefert Ihnen mit unserer Hilfe bei der Diskussion mit Ihrem Softwarehersteller einen Ausweg aus dieser Sackgasse.
Verbesserungen
Wir werden Ihnen aufzeigen, wo die Engpässe in Ihrem System liegen und wie gut Hard-/Software in Ihre Arbeitsumgebung passen und zusammenspielen.
Benchmark Ergebnisse mit Firebird 3.0
auf einem IFSLR Server
Sie und/oder Ihr Softwarehersteller bekommen von uns konkrete Hinweise, was verbessert werden sollte, um im Zusammenspiel von Firebird Datenbanksystemen mit Ihrer Software auch bei größeren Kundeninstallationen und Datenmengen eine optimale Performance zu erhalten.
Ob es dabei um Indizes geht, bessere SQL-Abfragen oder generelle Tipps und Tricks. Wir sehen uns als Moderator zwischen Ihnen und dem Softwarehersteller.
Wenn der Softwarehersteller, wie in fast allen Fällen, bei denen wir das Monitoring bereits erfolgreich umgesetzt haben, konstruktiv mit uns zusammenarbeitet, dann werden Sie oft bereits im nächsten Release-Update der Software deutliche Fortschritte feststellen.
Wir untersuchen Ihre Applikation auch auf Netzwerkprotokollebene, weil oft Daten bereits über das Netzwerk abgerufen werden, die in der Anwendungssoftware nirgendwo angezeigt werden.
Der Programmierer ist sich dieses Problems oft gar nicht bewusst, bis wir ihn darauf mit konkreten Beispielen hinweisen und Workarounds anbieten, mit denen er das vermeiden kann.
Unsere Dienstleistung
Lassen Sie uns als Datenbankexperten Ihr Datenbanksystem analysieren, um Ihr System für eine optimale Performance zu verbessern. Sie werden sehen, dass unser Erfahrungsschatz sicher auch Ihnen neue Aspekte vermitteln wird, so dass Sie und Ihr Softwarehaus in der Lage sein werden, Ihr Datenbanksystem optimieren zu können.
Unser gemeinsames Ziel soll es sein, eine optimale Arbeitsumgebung zu schaffen, ohne faule Kompromisse und ehrliche Antworten zu finden, auch von Ihrem Softwarehaus.
Wir bieten Ihnen unser IBExpert Firebird SQL Performance Monitoring zum Preis von 1200 Euro. Bestellen Sie per mail an: sales@ibexpert.biz.
Nach Zahlungseingang starten wird das Monitoring zu einem vereinbarten Termin per Fernwartung und lassen es üblicherweise 7 Tage, oder auf Wunsch auch länger, laufen.
Nach Ende des Monitorings erhalten Sie innerhalb von 72 Stunden einen ausführlichen Bericht per E-Mail.
Unser Standard Angebot ist nur gültig für alle Firebird Versionen ab Firebird 2.5. Für ältere Firebird Versionen fragen Sie bitte unser Angebot an: sales@ibexpert.biz.

Ihr Hotline-Kundenkonto wird mit der genauen Anzahl der verbrauchten Minuten einer Remote- oder Telefon Session belastet.
Unsere Preisliste finden Sie hier.
Und so geht's: Nach Freischaltung Ihres Hotline-Kundenkontos im IBExpert Download Center können Sie unter Hotline Information Ihren Prepaid Code, Ihre verfügbaren Hotline-Minuten und die Auflistung Ihrer Hotline-Sessions mit Start- und Endzeit einsehen. Sie werden über Ihre Hotline-Telefonnummer, die Sie per E-Mail erhalten, direkt mit Ihrem Ansprechpartner verbunden (kein Call Center!). Ihren Prepaid Code teilen Sie Ihrem Ansprechpartner bei Ihrem Anruf mit.
Unsere IBExpert und Firebird Hotline steht Ihnen auch in Ländern außerhalb Deutschlands zur Verfügung.
Eine Übersicht aller IBExpert Dienstleistungen und Gebühren finden Sie unter Alle Produkte & Preise. Wenn Sie weitere Fragen haben, senden Sie bitte eine Mail an sales@ibexpert.biz.
Database Repair & Analysis
(German-language version below)
IBExpert Database analysis/database repair
If you are confronted with a damaged or corrupt database we can often offer a rapid solution without even having to come out and analyze the corrupt database on site. Before we can provide you with our database repair estimate, we must first analyse your database.
For the database analysis we charge a prepayment fee of EUR 150.00. Should you require a prompt database analysis, e.g. due to an emergency, we charge a prepayment fee of EUR 300.00.
If a database repair is possible following the analysis, you will receive our written cost estimate. Experience shows that we can repair most databases.
After you have contacted us and outlined your database problem, send a copy of your database (postal address here) compressed as a ZIP or 7Z file, ideally on a USB stick or USB drive. Please ensure as far as possible that individual ZIP files are no larger than 10MB (most ZIP applications allow you to pack into multiple files).
Please don't forget to mention which software you are using and which Firebird version is in use.
If the database is smaller than 50MB, you can mail it to us at: sales@ibexpert.biz.
Alternatively we can provide an FTP upload address for larger databases.
Any data media supplied will be returned and charged separately if wished.
IBExpert Datenbankanalyse/Datenbankreparatur
Wenn Ihre Datenbank beschädigt ist, können wir eine schnelle Lösung anbieten, ohne dass wir bei Ihnen vor Ort die defekte Datenbank analysieren müssen. Bevor wir Ihnen unseren Kostenvoranschlag zur Datenbankreparatur unterbreiten können, müssen wir zunächst einmal ihre Datenbank analysieren.
Für die Datenbankanalyse berechnen wir eine Aufwandsentschädigung von 150,00 Euro per Vorauskasse. Sollten Sie eine zeitnahe Datenbankanalyse wünschen, z.B. wegen eines Notfalls, berechnen wir eine Aufwandsentschädigung in Höhe von 300,00 Euro per Vorauskasse.
Wenn nach erfolgter Analyse eine Datenbankreparatur möglich ist, erhalten Sie unseren Kostenvoranschlag. Erfahrungswerte zeigen, dass wir die meisten Datenbanken reparieren können.
Nachdem Sie uns kontaktiert und Ihre Datenbankproblematik geschildert haben, senden Sie uns (unsere Postanschrift finden Sie hier) eine Kopie Ihrer Datenbank, gepackt als ZIP oder 7Z Datei vorzugsweise auf einem USB Stick oder USB-Laufwerk. Die einzelnen ZIP-Dateien sollten möglichst nicht größer als 10MB sein (die meisten ZIP Anwendungen ermöglichen die Komprimierung in mehrere Dateien).
Bitte vergessen Sie nicht, uns die eingesetzte Software- und Firebird Version mitzuteilen.
Wenn die Datenbank kleiner als 50MB ist, können Sie diese auch per E-Mail senden: sales@ibexpert.biz.
Für große Datenbanken erhalten Sie eine FTP Upload Adresse.
Gelieferte Medien erhalten Sie auf Wunsch mit separater Rechnung zurück.
