+ Object-Relational Database Management System GigaBASE inherits most of the
+ features of FastDB, but uses page pool instead of direct mapping of file on
+ virtual memory. So GigaBASE is able to handle database, which size
+ significantly exceeds size of computer physical memory. Convenient and
+ flexible C++ interface makes development of application for GigaBASE very
+ easy and automatic scheme evaluation simplifies maintenance and modification
+ of the system. GigaBASE merges best features of relational (simple data
+ structure and non-procedural query language) and object-oriented (direct
+ object references, user defined types and methods) databases. GigaBASE is
+ primary oriented on application requiring fast data retrieving by means of
+ indices and direct object references, such as Web Server databases
+ applications. SUBSQL utility can be used for database browsing and
+ inspection, performing online backups, database recovery, importing data to
+ and exporting data from database. GigaBASE will perform automatic recovery
+ after system or application crash, you should not worry about it. The only
+ thing you can have to do manually is stopping all database application if
+ one of them is crashed leaving database blocked.
