Embarcadero Announces Release of InterBase 2020 Update 2
Embarcadero Technologies is pleased to announce the release of InterBase 2020 Update 2. Building on the solid foundation of InterBase 2020, the new update includes new features and addresses a number of customer issues.
InterBase 2020 Update 2 extends database support for Common Table Expressions by supporting recursive CTE. It also adds to the ISQL dialect the ability to extract information based on features added in recent years (EUA database setup and EUA user records, Change View Subscription definitions and their use in Database/Table schemas, Encryption Key definitions).
InterBase 2020 Update 2 also offers fixes for over 40 reported issues, including those already addressed in InterBase 2020 Update 1 Hotfixes 1 and 2. More information on the product and this update release can be found on the InterBase docwiki's What's New page and also check the release 2 readme.
Moreover, the ToGo Edition of InterBase 2020 Update 2 adds native support for macOS ARM CPUs, by offering a universal binary package (combining the Intel and ARM binaries) for macOS deployment. The pre-release version of this support can be found in recently-released Embarcadero RAD Studio 11.
Earlier this year, Embarcadero also significantly updated the ADO.NET driver for InterBase, available on NuGet and GitHub as described at https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/InterBase/2020/en/ADO.NET_Driver.
Owners of existing InterBase 2020 licenses can download this release at https://my.embarcadero.com (specifically the Windows installer and the Linux installer).
General InterBase information can be found at www.embarcadero.com/products/interbase and www.interbase.com.
