Firebird driver for Python
This package provides official Python Database API 2.0-compliant driver for the open source relational database Firebird®. In addition to the minimal feature set of the standard Python DB API, this driver also exposes the new (interface-based) client API introduced in Firebird 3, and number of additional extensions and enhancements for convenient use of Firebird RDBMS.
