C++Builder has VCL (Windows) and FireMonkey (cross-platform) component sets containing hundreds of components for everything from creating user interfaces to database connectivity, making it fast and easy to build connected business applications for desktop and mobile platforms.

FMX allows developers to code once and reach multiple platforms with the correct user interface design for each platform. Components protect you from changes and differences between different platform APIs, and user interface controls allow you to code once and reach all platforms with the same functionality.

In addition to the included VCL and FireMonkey components, a broad range of tools and components are available from the Delphi and C++Builder community.

The source code is not a black box! With the source code you can look into how the APIs you call are actually mapped to the system APIs. C++Builder libraries protect you from changes and differences between different platform APIs, allowing you to code once and reach all platforms with the same functionality. Includes library source code for all components and the runtime library.

Store and access data in databases either installed on the local machine or embedded (e.g. InterBase ToGo) inside your application.

Support for local databases, including Microsoft Access database, SQLite database, InterBase ToGo / IBLite, InterBase on localhost, MySQL Embedded, MySQL Server on localhost, Advantage Database local engine, PostgreSQL on localhost, Firebird Embedded, Firebird on localhost

Update Subscription is Embarcadero Support and Maintenance plan that keeps you up-to-date with product updates, gives you access to support and more. Your 1st year of Update Subscription is now included with your purchase. Now you only need to renew your subscription and you never need to worry about upgrade timing or expiring upgrade options. You get the value of your perpetual license plus a subscription model – the best of both worlds.

Update Subscription provides a lot of value…

• All updates and hotfixes for current releases
• Ongoing maintenance for previous releases (some limitations may apply)
• All major upgrades
• 3 developer support incidents per year
• Эксклюзивные предложения, дополнительные продукты и технический контент

Update Subscription is renewable annually for approximately 30% of licensing costs, which results in far lower TOC (Total Cost of Ownership) compared to alternative solutions. Further benefits maybe available for Enterprise Users.

Create connected mobile applications for Android and iOS from a single codebase.

Store and access local and remote data in the leading databases; Client/Server enterprise connectivity for InterBase, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle Database, PostgreSQL, Sybase SQL Anywhere, Microsoft Access, IBM DB2 Server, Firebird, Advantage Database, MongoDB and for everything else, a generic ODBC driver.

FireDAC enables client/server database connectivity and support for additional enterprise databases in RAD Studio. FireDAC enables client/server and enterprise connectivity to all supported databases including InterBase, SQLite, MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, DB2, SQL Anywhere, Advantage DB, Firebird, Access, Informix, DataSnap and more.

Develop and test locally custom REST APIs for your business functionality and map them to custom URIs using loadable packages for the EMS server, part of RAD Server.

Quickly build new application back-ends or migrate existing Delphi or C++ client/server business logic to a modern services based architecture that is open, stateless, secure and scalable.

You’ll also get enterprise database integration middleware, IoT Edgeware, and an array of application services such as User Directory, Authentication services, Push Notifications, Indoor/Outdoor Geolocation, and JSON data storage.

DataSnap SDK helps you build multi-tier applications with the server built in C++Builder and connect them via a range of clients and protocols. Using DataSnap Mobile Connectors you can quickly create source code for Java, Objective C and .Net enabling rapid integration into other development languages. DataSnap is the ability of the Client application to invoke methods that are implemented on a server and automatically generate the necessary interface for the Client to communicate with that Server, containing the prototypes of the Server methods.

DataSnap uses a secured transfer of JSON data content over TCP/IP or HTTP. The ability to define filters at both ends of the communication channel, for encryption and compression purposes, improves the security. Another benefit of the DataSnap technology is that it offers the possibility to asynchronously notify all the Client applications about changes made to the Server, so that Clients can take appropriate actions. The callback does not require Clients to invoke any of the Server methods.

Get the most value out of enterprise databases and data structures; reverse engineer your database to visualize the structure and relationships. C++Builder includes ER/Studio® 2016 Developer Edition for database modeling & design, and DB PowerStudio® 2016 Developer Edition for fast SQL database development, change management, profiling and tuning.
