Pervasive.SQL Workgroup Engine 9.0066

Pervasive.SQL Workgroup Engine is a lightweight, peer-to-peer edition of the Pervasive.SQL database designed for single users and small teams that need reliable, low-maintenance data storage. It combines fast, transactional Btrieve/ISAM access with a relational SQL interface, so applications can perform high-speed record operations while exposing data to reporting tools through standard SQL. The Workgroup Engine runs on desktop-class Windows machines and can share database files over a small LAN, supporting a limited number of concurrent users without requiring a dedicated server.

Key features:

• ACID-compliant transactions, record-level locking, and automatic recovery
• Dual access methods: Btrieve/ISAM and SQL via ODBC, JDBC, OLE DB, and ADO.NET
• Small footprint and simple deployment; commonly embedded in line-of-business apps
• Backward compatibility with existing Btrieve data files
• Low administration with built-in integrity checks and backup utilities
• Easy upgrade path to the Client/Server edition for larger deployments, typically without code changes or data migration

Typical use cases:

• Small business applications such as accounting, inventory, and point-of-sale systems
• Desktop applications that need a local database with occasional multi-user access over a workgroup network
• ISVs who bundle a reliable embedded database engine with their software

Notes:

• Licensing and maximum concurrent users are limited compared to the Client/Server edition
• For centralized, high-concurrency, or 24x7 environments, the Server Engine is usually a better fit
