InterBase Change Views Patent Granted
Updated 11.11.2019
Embarcadero has been granted a patent for "Tracking change data in a database" that matches the architectural and implementation work done to implement Change Views in InterBase. The Change Views feature was initially released in InterBase XE7 and continues to be a differentiating factor, and a feature that offers tremendous power in today’s distributed world, given remote clients like phones can easily access updated data (rather than refreshing an entire table) with greatly reduced bandwidth. This is done without writing significant custom application code or additional triggers and database instrumentation. You get the support for changes out of the box as part of the core database features offering easier and smoother operations and great performance. This is a unique implementation and offers InterBase a great advantage in many application scenarios focused on low-bandwidth remote data access.

Morae will be retired, support available through end of 2020
Updated 11.10.2019
After 15 years, TechSmith made the decision to discontinue sales of Morae on December 31, 2019. Many of the third party technologies that Morae requires are no longer supported or produced, so development and support of the product will be phased out.
What does this mean for end users? You can still buy Morae through the end of 2019, and support of the product will be continued through December 31, 2020. TechSmith will also not remove anyone's ability to use Morae. Those who have purchased the product prior to January 1, 2020 can use it as long as it serves them. Morae is Windows 10 compatible, so there's still plenty of time to benefit from all that it offers.
