Mimer SQL is an SQL-based relational database management system[1] from the Swedish company Mimer Information Technology AB (formerly Upright Database Technology AB). It has been developed and produced since the 1970s when it was founded at the Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden.
The database is available in real-time, embedded and automotive specialist versions requiring no maintenance.[2] This makes it suitable for mission-critical automotive, process automation and telecommunication systems.[3]
Features
Mimer SQL offers a scalable and portable solution providing database servers for environments that spans from embedded and real-time operating systems to enterprise systems. This includes platforms like Windows, MacOS, Linux, Android, Unix, OpenVMS, and VxWorks.[4]
Mimer SQL provides support for multiple database application programming interfaces (APIs): ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET, Embedded SQL (C/C++, Cobol and Fortran), and the native API's Mimer SQL Real-Time API and Mimer SQL Micro C API.
Mimer SQL uses optimistic concurrency control (OCC).[5][6]
Etymology
The name "Mimer" is taken from the Norse mythology, where Mimer was the giant guarding the well of wisdom, also known as "Mímisbrunnr". Metaphorically this is what a database system is doing - managing data.
