InterBase Software Corp, the spin-off from Borland International Inc, has launched InterBase version 4.2.2 Server for Novell Inc’s NetWare 4.11. Interbase launch version 5.0 of its embeddable relational database engine for Windows NT, Solaris and HP-UX Unix at the end of last year (CI No 3,313). It hopes the 5.0 version for NetWare will follow later this year. Thereafter, the company says it plans two releases each year for the Novell platform, starting in the second and fourth quarters 1999. Included in the version is the InterBase Client for 32-bit Windows, enabled with a 32-bit application interfaces to Novell’s IPX/SPX proprietary protocols or TCP/IP. This is built on top of Microsoft Winsock, eliminating the need for the third party components needed with the previous version. á
