If we had a register database that users could add entries, I'd put my
installs in.

The Examiner Newspaper is Australia's second-oldest newspaper, first
appearing on March 12, 1842.
We use Firebird for a variety of core-business processes, from web-based
information gathering from advertising clients, to internal CRM and
Directory services.

The need arose for a database with a proven track record, stability, and
performance under unpredictable loas. With ~200 workstations in 7 sites, our
data storage needs had to be available 24/7, as a newspaper relies on the
data it receives - No data, no newspaper.

Firebird, with it's ~20 years of growth and enterprise use, was the ideal
choice for our organisation. Now with 5 databases collectively storing ~3GB
of data, not a single minute has been lost due to administration time.

Firebird has proven itself to be the right choice for us.
