Sorry, I can't comment on SAP vs Firebird. I don't have SAP
experience.

Firebird is better established as one might think. Some that were
involved with the development of Interbase at Borland are now with the
Firebird team. And, if you want to know more about the history of
Firebird, take a look at the "Interbase Roadmap" found on Claudio's
website: http://www.cvalde.com/

Also, Firebird 1.5 is in the late steps of the release candidate
stage, and there should be one more release candidate before the final
release.
