Introducing
Superbase Classic
 The
World's First Relational Database with the unique Peer-to-Peer Client/Server
Technology
In 1989 Superbase gave the world its first Windows-based relational
database management system (RDBMS). In 1999, we introduced the world’s
first Peer-to-Peer Client/Server system (PPCS) which was designed
to offer businesses a complete data management solution regardless
of their size.
For the first time ever, there is a product that combines the meanness,
leanness and ease of use of a desktop database with the functionality
of a SQL database and that enables applications to share data and
files between multiple clients and multiple servers. With Superbase
Classic, the new PPCS functionality of sharing and exchanging data
and applications between computers, locally or remotely, is offered
as an addition to the high performance and reliability already enjoyed
by approximately two million users around the world. PPCS is a Client/Server
system with a difference.
- Since both the client and the server are integrated into Superbase
Classic only one version of the software is needed, thus alleviating
the need for two different software products.
- A client can connect to an unlimited number of servers and
concurrently access all the databases and applications that exist
on all the connected servers.
- A client can be converted to a server and a server into a client
at will and instantaneously. This makes it possible to write applications
that effectively make the Internet an extension of your local
LAN!
The modern development environment of Superbase
is built around the small, fast, efficient and proven Superbase
database engine. A flexible Basic-like language (similar in syntax
to VBA) and a robust set of tools make Superbase an ideal and
powerful Rapid Application Development (RAD) tool suitable for
the most demanding applications in any mission-critical environment.

The following tours are designed to familiarise
you with the interface and many functionalities of Superbase.
The PPCS link will familiarise you with the PPCS and its application
in remote connectivity.
