SQL Remote new features

In addition to bug fixes, SQL Remote version 6.0.2 includes the following new features:

Performance enhancements A major enhancement of the Adaptive Server Anywhere Message Agent (dbremote) operational model for scanning the transaction log and sending messages greatly improves the range of achievable replication turnaround times.

Minimum lag times between entering data at one site and its replication to another site were limited in earlier versions to times on the order of ten minutes. With the new operational model, minimum lag times on the order of seconds can be achieved in some circumstances.

When the Message Agent message-sending process runs in continuous mode, it now stays (hovers) at the end of the active transaction log while waiting for more data to be committed, instead of rescanning the transaction log each time. This allows you to poll more frequently, which can significantly reduce time for replication.
