IF YOU’RE NOT YET FAMILIAR WITH FILEMAKER SERVER:
FileMaker Server is the platform component that really makes your custom apps available to multiple users.
Not only can it serve these applications to FileMaker Pro or FileMaker Go users, but it can also make them available via Web Direct, allowing anyone with a web browser to use your applications!
In addition, FileMaker Server can also make your data available via the Data API (REST API), OData, ODBC or XML API!
The Claris FileMaker platform thus becomes a perfect citizen of the Web services era.
This alone is enough to make the leap, but it doesn’t stop there.
FileMaker Server also backs up your databases, encrypts them, allows you to authenticate using Single Sign On (SSO) or OAuth… and many other things that anyone serious about databases considers indispensable.
Does this all sound like big words to you?
Don’t worry, hosting your databases on a server has never been easier.
