Re: [firebird-support] When to use Firebird 3 Classic

 

From an IT operations side it is so nice and easy to run top on linux and see all of the processes for classic.  For superserver and superclassic that is all mostly hidden in threads for a single process and you can't terminate a single thread through the OS tools in the case of an emergency.

The number one reason why Classic hasn't been vanished yet, cause big
customers with critical environments are still opting for Classic.
