### B.2.1. Known issues with Interbase

- Interbase does not support record locking, so datastore transactions can use the pessimistic lock manager.

- Interbase does not support the `LOWER`, `SUBSTRING`, or `INSTR` SQL functions, which means that `toLowerCase()`, `indexOf()`, and `substring()` methods in JDOQL cannot be used.
