Download Interbase JDBC Driver

Download the Interbase JDBC driver, copy the JDBC URL into DbSchema, and start designing schemas with ER diagrams — free Community Edition.

Connect Interbase in DbSchema Install the driver, open a connection, reverse engineer your schema, and sync changes visually.

About the Interbase JDBC driver

A JDBC driver is a Java .jar library that lets applications connect to Interbase. DbSchema uses JDBC to reverse engineer schemas, run SQL, and generate documentation. Driver files are usually published by the database vendor or an open-source project.

JDBC URL format

Host, port, database name, and SSL options are passed in a URL starting with jdbc:. Each Interbase driver uses its own syntax — see the connection details below.

The Interbase JDBC driver

InterBase is a high-performance SQL database known for its small footprint, on-disk encryption, and multi-generational architecture (MGA), which provides snapshot isolation without table locks. It is widely used in embedded applications and Delphi/C++ Builder environments.

The InterBase JDBC URL

  • Required File(s): interclient.jar
  • Java Driver Class: interbase.interclient.Driver
  • JDBC URL: jdbc:interbase://HOST:PORT/DB
  • Website: Embarcadero

Download InterBase JDBC Driver

The driver archive is a zip file. Extract it and load the .jar files using DbSchema's Driver Manager.

DbSchema and InterBase

DbSchema connects to InterBase using the compatible JDBC driver and renders schemas including triggers, generators, and stored procedures as interactive ER diagrams.

Test the driver with DbSchema

Connect Interbase, build your first ER diagram in minutes. No account required.

1
Download driver & DbSchema

Get the Interbase driver zip below and install DbSchema for Windows, macOS, or Linux.

2
Register the .jar

In DbSchema, open Driver Manager, add the extracted JAR, and paste your JDBC URL.

3
Design & document

Reverse engineer Interbase, edit the model visually, and publish schema documentation.

Use Interbase visually in DbSchema

After the JDBC driver connects, you get ER diagrams, SQL editor, schema sync, and HTML documentation in one desktop app. Compare DbSchema editions.

ER diagrams

Reverse engineer Interbase into an interactive diagram and edit structures visually.

SQL & query builder

Run SQL with autocomplete or compose queries without writing every join by hand.

Schema documentation

Export HTML docs your team can browse without installing DbSchema.
