Firebird Data Sync Changelog

What's new in Firebird Data Sync 15.3

Aug 3, 2015
  • An ability to select or disable certain synchronization operations (Insert, Update, and Delete) has been implemented. The corresponding command line switches have been added as well.
  • Now it is possible to specify SQL scripts to be executed before and/or after synchronizing data of each table. A typical example of using this feature is when the project contains several SQL Server tables with autoincrement columns. In this case you need to execute SET IDENTITY_INSERT %target_table% ON and SET IDENTITY_INSERT %target_table% OFF before and after processing the next table accordingly.
  • Synchronization script file name and log file name are now stored in the project file. These settings can be overwritten with the appropriate command line options.
  • The first page of the wizard has been redesigned in order to provide more comfortable access to recently opened projects and display the latest company news.
  • The progress windows are redesigned in the modern style and become more informative.
  • Support for keyboard interactive SSH authentication has been added (when applicable). This method provides for a multiple challenge-response dialog with the user in which the server sends a text query to the user, the user types in a response, and this process can repeat any number of times to ensure that the client is a human.

New in Firebird Data Sync 12.2.0.1 (Feb 9, 2012)

  • Starting with this version our software allows you to compare and synchronize the data represented by database views.
  • An automatic checking of table and column mappings has been implemented.
  • Now it is possible to setup a filter for the source and target data before the comparison to compare and synchronize only subsets of data.
  • An ability of exporting comparison results to any of 18 available formats including Excel, HTML, XML, and CSV has been implemented. Get the complete comparison report in a few mouse clicks!
  • From now on Data Sync tries to sort the target tables automatically to avoid potential integrity violations. Of course it is also still possible to reorder the targets manually.
  • Also it becomes possible to short the list of comparison pairs hiding the identical objects (i.e. tables and views that contain only identical records).
  • In addition to this, several bugs have been fixed and some other minor improvements and corrections have been made.
