1C server — evolution in action
Today, almost every company uses this special application program. Its history began long ago, with the 1C program: accounting software versions 3 and 4.0. At that time, it was a single financial program without 1C installing and configuring. Today, 1C is a large-format set of services that accompanies the business processes of Ukrainian companies.
The evolution of the 1C server led to the release of version 1C 7.x (7.0, 7.5, 7.7), which became a breakthrough of that time. From that moment, the product was only being improved, the division into platform and configuration was made, and the database was saved in DBF format. The technological breakthrough occurred thanks to the release of 1C: Enterprise 8.0, which expanded the database of used SQL servers to 8.1 version.
