The Russian software provider RED SOFT became a platinum sponsor of the Firebird Foundation, which was incorporated in 2002 to provide a way to raise funds to support the developers of the open source Firebird relational database management system.

Thus, the company, which owns its technological stack of software products, including the modern industrial Red Database DBMS, becomes a full and active member of the Firebird international community.

Red Soft and BFT have completed testing of the compatibility RedDatabase and AZK-Finances system. The results show the full compatibility. Both companies signed related documents. Previously Red Soft and BFT did the same testing but after a lot of improvements of the both systems we decided to repeat it.

The International Firebird 2019 Conference was held in Berlin from October 17 to 19, 2019. This year the conference is dedicated to Firebird 4, and also includes a series of presentations and practical seminars.

Within the framework of the event, the RED SOFT team have presented three reports. Director of the System Products Development Department Roman Simakov gave a review of the Red Database 4.0 DBMS and made a report on the "Productive use of Red Database DBMS". Dmitry Starodubov, head of the DBMS development department, gave a master class on using the free cross-platform administration tool RedExpert.
