In our initial post, we introduced the InterBase Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server – a tool engineered with Delphi to bridge Large Language Models (LLMs) with InterBase databases. In this follow-up, we are opening our playground notebook: a real, step-by-step session where I used ChatGPT to interact directly with an InterBase database instance using InterBase MCP tools and agentic…
If you maintain a Delphi application that still talks to the database through BDE, ADO, IBX, or dbExpress, you’ve likely thought (more than once) about migrating to FireDAC. What usually stops the move is not doubts about FireDAC, it is the fear that migration means weeks…
As Generative AI evolves from simple conversational text generation into agentic workflows—where LLMs reason, query, inspect, and maintain enterprise infrastructure—securely connecting models to your relational databases has never been more vital. Today, we are thrilled…
Did you know that InterBase and PostgreSQL both support a field type which is an array of values? It is not always obvious how to read and write to these database array field types. I get quite a lot of email from Delphi and C++ developers asking if I know how to achieve…
If you are looking for a fully functional powerful database which can be easily used in your mobile apps and, importantly, unlike SQLite, it supports full-strength encryption without having to pay an extra fee then we have some good news! Not only does InterBase work on…

The Long and Winding Road To Delphi’s 29th Birthday
This blog post contains a quick look at 29+ years of development, innovation, community and fun with Delphi.
It Started with Pascal
In order to get to today’s 29th year of Delphi, we have to start back in 1970…
A Complete Guide To Advanced Programming In C++
This article is part of a series which teaches you the basics of how to write C++ software. C and C++ both make use of pointers. Often, new C++ programmers can struggle with both the concept and correct use of pointers. In…
Are you a developer looking to build apps faster with less coding involved? Do you want to use your code to create cross platform apps which work on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android? Do you also wish to increase the efficiency of developing large projects and extended…
Connection Pooling Meaning
A connection pool is a cache of database connections maintained so that the connections can be reused when future requests to the database are required. Connection pools are used to enhance the performance of executing commands on a database.
Hello C++ Developers,
In a previous C++ apps article we covered 5 easy C++ string methods to learn where we focused on how to iterate and manipulate strings in C++ in various ways. Today we have new different topics. In the first post pick, we will learn a reverse…
