Tibero a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) is considered an alternative to Oracle Databases due to its complete compatibility with Oracle products, including SQL.

Tibero guarantees reliable database transactions, which are logical sets of SQL statements, by supporting ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability). Providing enhanced synchronization between databases, Tibero 5 enables reliable database service operation in a multi node environment.

Tibero has implemented a unique Tibero Thread Architecture to address the disadvantages of previous DBMS. As a result, Tibero can make efficient use of system resources, such as CPU and memory, through fewer server processes. This ensures that Tibero offers a combination of performance, stability, and expandability, while facilitating development and administration functions. Additionally, it provides users and developers with various standard development interface to easily integrate with other DBMS and 3rd party tools.

In Korea, Tibero has been adopted by more than 450 companies across a range of industries from Finance, Manufacturing and Communication, to the public sector and globally by more than 14 companies, as of July 2011.
