2.2. Database access
The embedded server can act as a true local server
accessing databases on a local machine, and as a remote
gateway which redirects all network calls to another
hosts (i.e. works as a client library). Note that you
cannot connect to the local standalone Firebird server
using the local connection string (without a host name).
It applies to IPC connections only, because they use
the same format of the connection string; but you can
connect to the local standalone server via TCP/IP localhost
loopback or via the named pipes protocol.
Client access can be only via the local protocol,
i.e. NOT a TCP/IP connection string that includes
the server name "localhost" or IP address 127.0.0.1.
The embedded server supports only the local connect
to a database file path without a server name. The
client program gets an exclusive access to the
database file after successful connect.
The embedded server acts as a true local server for a single
client accessing databases on a local machine. It can also
act as a remote gateway that redirects all network calls to
other hosts, just as the regular client library
does.
