Delivers first frontline data management and synchronization solution
for Intel-based Mac OS X; Announces availability of a free Developer
Edition
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – Macworld Conference & Expo – January 9, 2007
– Sybase iAnywhere today announced the availability of SQL Anywhere
10 for Intel-based Macs. This release provides the first data
management and synchronization solution for Intel-based Macs and
enables organizations to capture, manage, and capitalize on the
explosion of mission-critical data in frontline environments.
Additionally, the company revealed that the free Developer Edition of
SQL Anywhere 10 is available for download or by visiting the Sybase
iAnywhere booth #N4034 (Moscone North Hall) at the Macworld
Conference & Expo.
SQL Anywhere was built from its inception to address the unique
characteristics of frontline environments such as high-performance
server and desktop applications running at remote customer sites,
workgroup applications deployed in enterprise departments and remote
offices and mobile applications used by sales people or service
technicians. SQL Anywhere also provides the first solution for
bi-directional synchronization between heterogeneous database servers
running in the enterprise and databases running on Mac Pro and other
Intel-based machines.
“Support for the new Intel-based Macs in SQL Anywhere 10 is driven by
significant customer and partner interest,” said Dave Neudoerffer,
vice president of engineering at iAnywhere. “Enterprises and ISVs
looking for an easy-to-use, embeddable database that can handle large
volumes of mission-critical data in frontline environments, will find
it in SQL Anywhere 10.”
“Mac OS X running on our Intel-based Macs provides an unbeatable mix
of power, security, stability and ease-of-use,” said Ron Okamoto,
Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations. “We’re
thrilled that Sybase iAnywhere has delivered a new version of its
enterprise caliber data management and synchronization software
designed to take full advantage of Mac OS X and our Intel-based Macs
in frontline environments.”
“We have a significant number of customers already using SQL Anywhere
in their Servoy applications on the Mac platform,” said Jan Aleman,
CEO, Servoy, Inc. “The performance, security, and developer
productivity enhancements in SQL Anywhere 10 will enable our
customers to take the rich business Internet applications they build
with Servoy to the next level.”
“SQL Anywhere with Servoy has enabled us to create an online
reference and teaching library of immuno stains without the need for
a DBA or development team. Everything just worked out of the box with
Mac OS X,” said Dr. Roger Warnke, Department of Medicine, Stanford
University. “The simplicity and ease of SQL Anywhere and Servoy RAD
tool meant we could build our application on top of an enterprise
relational database in a fraction of the time of other technologies.”
SQL Anywhere provides multiple data access interfaces, such as JDBC,
ODBC, Perl, and PHP that developers can use to create rich solutions
with a variety of development tools, including Xcode, with either
Java or the Cocoa framework, CodeWarrior, Project Builder, or Servoy.
Additionally, its support for open standards and industry
technologies, such as XML and Web Services, ensure developers can
choose the technologies that best meet their needs.
