Introducing SQL Anywhere Studio
SQL Anywhere Studio Supported Platforms
SQL Anywhere Studio provides database management and synchronization technologies for a wide variety of operating systems. It includes the following major components:
Adaptive Server Anywhere A relational database system for use all the way from a Small and Medium Business (SMB) database server through desktop database applications down to Windows CE devices.
UltraLite A relational database designed specifically for small devices. It runs on Palm OS and Windows CE devices.
MobiLink A synchronization system that provides two-way synchronization between many Adaptive Server Anywhere or UltraLite databases and a central database server.
SQL Remote A synchronization system for Adaptive Server Anywhere and Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise databases.
Administration tools A suite of tools provides management for all components in SQL Anywhere Studio.
This appendix lists which components of SQL Anywhere Studio run on which operating systems. The information is organized by component within SQL Anywhere Studio.
