a chess [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database|database]] [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front_and_back_ends|front and back end]] developed by [[Matthias Wüllenweber]] for the [[Atari ST]] which led to the foundation of the [[ChessBase]] company in 1986 <ref>[[http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail.asp?newsid=1376|Christmas dinner on a train – meet the ChessBase team]] from [[ChessBase|ChessBase News]], December 23, 2003</ref> along with [[Frederic Friedel]] - the product name eponym of the company. ChessBase **1.0** was first released in January 1987 for the Atari ST running under [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphical_Environment_Manager|GEM]]. [[Mathias Feist]] joined ChessBase in the late 80s, and was responsible to port the database and interface from Atari ST into the [[x86]] [[MS-DOS|DOS]]/[[Windows]] world, and further integrated first chess engines into the ChessBase interface, turning this into [[Fritz]] in 1991. Subsequent ChessBase versions evolved to a sophisticated multiple purpose [[GUI]] for database management, database queries and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_mining|mining]], [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interactivity|interactive]] [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimedia|multimedia]] and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video|video]] [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tutorial|tutorials]], analyzing or playing [[Chess Game|games]] and automatic engine tournaments with various native, [[UCI]] or [[WinBoard]] compliant engines on a single computer, inside a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network|network]] or [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computing|cloud]], online play via the [[Playchess]] [[Chess Server|chess server]], and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_publishing|Web-]] and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_publishing|desktop publishing]] of chess related documents. ||

=GUI=
The ChessBase **12** [[GUI]] is based on the fluent design as introduced by [[Microsoft]] [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Office_2007|Office 2007]], featuring a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribbon_%28computing%29|ribbon]] <ref>[[http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee354408.aspx|MSDN - Ribbon Designer (MFC)]]</ref>, which is a set of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toolbar|toolbars]] placed on [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tab_%28GUI%29|tabs]]. Beside the ribbon, the main window features various workspace layouts, either tiled by a navigation folder window, a database list view and database game-list and preview window, or game-lists for query results and game windows with board- and tabbed windows for [[Game Notation|game notation]], annotations, references, score sheet, [[Opening Book|opening book]] tree, etc., to play, replay or analyze a game.

=Database=
A chess database is an organized collection of hundreds, thousands, or nowadays even millions of [[Chess Game|chess games]]. The proprietary ChessBase format manages those games with [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_index|indices]] and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classifier|classifiers]] for [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_mining|data mining]] and fast access. Queries for games can consider a variety of items, such as player names, date of games, [[ECO|ECO code]], thematic keys and fragments of positions. [[Portable Game Notation|PGN]] is supported as interchange format.

==Formats==
[[#CBF]]The ChessBase 3 database format (**CBF**) used two kind of files, data (*.cbf) and indices (*.cbi). The move encoding was based on a deterministic [[Move Generation|move generator]], storing the generation number of a move. Along with ChessBase **6** in 1996, a new format was established, dubbed **CBH**, which was able to handle nested variations with annotations, multimedia files, and more sophisticated indices. One CBH database consists of more than ten files with various extensions <ref>[[http://scleinzell.schachvereine.de/p_cbtipps/cb8_f6_02.shtml|Schachclub Leinzell - ChessBase 8.0 + Fritz 6 - Das CBH-Format]] by [[Peter Schreiner]], [[http://scleinzell.schachvereine.de/home/news.shtml|Schachclub Leinzell]], March 2001 (German)</ref>, which can be archived inside a single file (*.cbv) format <ref>[[http://www.stmintz.com/ccc/index.php?id=302034|Re: Need help with little .cbh database - Fritz experts?]] by [[Ulrich Türke]], [[CCC]], June 20, 2003</ref>. Apparently, the CBH file format was [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_engineering|reverse engineered]] for interoperability purposes like import into other databases <ref>[[http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=29468|CBH file format]] by Yarin, [[CCC]], August 19, 2009</ref>.
