Firebird 3 has brought a fully unified server architecture and improved support for multi-core hardware platforms. Threading of engine processes has been improved, bringing the ability for Superserver to share page cache across thread and connection boundaries.
New strategies inside the engine improve performance, query optimization, monitoring and scalability. Many important features that are globally configurable can now be overridden and applied on a "per-database" basis. Above all, Firebird 3 provides more options for server and database security. An authentication database can be dedicated to one or more specific databases, or embedded within a user database.
A number of sought-after features were introduced into the SQL language, including a fully-implemented Boolean data type, a Microsoft-style IDENTITY type, SQL packages, stored user-defined functions and SQL-driven management of user accounts and access privileges.
Despite the advances, Firebird 3 is still the Firebird that we know and love. This Supplement provides an updated reference for everyone who uses, or wants to use, the Firebird relational database management system as a back-end component to software ranging from bulk data collectors to enterprise-wide systems. It should be treated as an adjunct to the companion volumes, certainly not as a substitute—so don’t throw away those doorstoppers that you bought for Firebird 2.
The companion volumes
Volume 1: Firebird Fundamentals is a "101" course for understanding client/server architecture, installing Firebird, setting it up on your network and beginning to work with databases, using the DDL lexicon of SQL.
Volume 2: Developing with Firebird Data takes up from the first book, covering the DML and PSQL features used by developers for making applications work with data.
Volume 3: Administering Firebird Servers and Databases covers all of the tools, procedures and features available to operate, monitor and maintain the security of your servers and the health of your databases.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
