FrontBase 2.2.2: Cocoa-native database
updated 04:40 pm EST, Wed March 28, 2001
FrontBase has announced FrontBase 2.22, "the first" scalable, relational database server available for Mac OS X.
The Cocoa-based application offers native performance and interoperability with WebObjects, as well as symmetric multiprocessing: "Utilizing the Cocoa environment has allowed us to develop associated and necessary tools as much as 5 to 10 times faster than on any other platform."
FrontBase supports large (over 1 terabyte) databases, gigabyte character data and large objects, encryption of datastore and client/server communication, storage-level Unicode support, live database backup, and multi-server deployment (replication and clustering). Pricing ranges from US $1000 to $3500. A free limited feature version and a free full-featured developer version without deployment rights are also available online.FrontBase has announced FrontBase 2.22, "the first" scalable, relational database server available for Mac OS X.

Everyone check out OpenBase. It has very elegant admin tools, PHP and WebObjects Support, and the company isn't burning through capital from a VC capital infusion (Danger for FrontBase's longevity)
