Embarcadero Launches InterBase 15: A Major Leap in Secure, Zero-Maintenance Embedded Databases

AUSTIN, TX - October 6th - Embarcadero Technologies today announced the release of InterBase 15, the latest version of its high-performance, low-footprint relational database. Built for developers and product teams who need rock-solid reliability and security without the administrative overhead, InterBase 15 delivers major enhancements in encryption, developer tooling, and long-term support.

InterBase is trusted by teams building applications across healthcare, defense, finance, and mobile. With its zero-maintenance architecture and small footprint, InterBase powers secure, high-availability systems in environments where failure is not an option.

InterBase 15 delivers on critical needs like robust security, built-in encryption, and a small footprint. Our customers rely on it in demanding environments, from embedded devices to high-performance server deployments. The new version of InterBase is efficient, maintenance-free, and extremely secure.

Key Highlights of InterBase 15:

• Stronger Encryption Standards: AES 256-bit encryption is now the default across all deployments. InterBase 15 also introduces SHA-256 password hashing and full support for OpenSSL 3.5, aligned with FIPS 140-2 standards for regulatory compliance.
• Upgraded Developer Tooling: Windows development has been updated to use Visual Studio 2022, helping teams build more secure and compatible applications.
• Simplified Versioning: Moving from year-based naming to version numbers, InterBase 15 represents the fifteenth major release of the database, offering easier tracking for future upgrades.
• New Support and Maintenance Model: Customers will now benefit from an always-on support subscription, ensuring consistent access to updates, patches, and critical security enhancements. This change simplifies licensing and helps organizations stay protected long-term.

InterBase continues to offer the performance and resilience developers count on, with minimal setup and no DBA required. From mobile apps to point-of-sale networks to complex enterprise systems, InterBase works quietly in the background, keeping data safe and applications running.
