SQL Anywhere Studio is a comprehensive package that provides data management and enterprise synchronization to enable the rapid development and deployment of mobile, workgroup and embedded database solutions. SQL Anywhere extends the reach of a corporation's e-Business information to anywhere business transactions occur. Regardless of connection or application type, SQL Anywhere Studio ensures "always available" access to data and corporate applications - empowering workers to be productive with the information they need, when they need it. Offline operation, the cornerstone of always-available access, is enabled through data synchronization and fully transactional local data management. Workers can access information and perform transactions offline, reducing communications costs while increasing application performance and battery life. Data synchronization technologies enable the exchange of new information in a timely manner, and minimize the amount of data that needs to be sent over a wireless or dial-up connection. SQL Anywhere Studio features Adaptive Server Anywhere, the industry-leading mobile and embedded database management system (DBMS). This small-footprint, powerful database server is optimized for use on workgroup servers, laptops and handheld devices, and supports both single-user and multi-user implementations. Adaptive Server Anywhere's UltraLite deployment option is designed to minimize memory and system requirements of data-driven applications targeting in-memory devices, such as handhelds, smart phones and intelligent appliances. SQL Anywhere Studio includes a comprehensive set of technologies for scalable, bidirectional synchronization of e-Business information between enterprise and remote systems. SQL Anywhere's synchronization technologies are optimized for both occasionally connected and near real-time environments. These technologies support the secure communication of information for remote and mobile users over a wide variety of synchronous, asynchronous, wireless, dial-up and Internet protocols.
