Sybase iAnywhere today announced the release of the latest version of SQL Anywhere®, its market-leading database and data exchange solution for frontline environments.

More than 500 key customers and partners participated in the product’s extensive beta program.

“This is a very significant release in SQL Anywhere’s 15-year history,” said David Neudoerffer, vice president of Engineering, Sybase iAnywhere. “SQL Anywhere 10 goes to new heights in its ability to handle larger and larger volumes of data on the front lines of the enterprise where there is little or no administration capability.”

- New database server performance features: including materialised views, intra-queryparallelism, snapshot isolation, parallel backups, additional indexing methods, and several internal enhancements.
- Enhanced methods for data protection, including: built-in high-availability data mirroring and Veritas cluster agent options, along with robust data security additions.
- Expanded developer productivity resources and platform support, including: tools for performance analysis and application profiling, .NET
2.0 support, tight integration with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 and new support for Symbian devices.
- Data exchange innovations in synchronisation and service-oriented architectures (SOA), including: new graphical administration tools for architecture setup and deployment, expanded enterprise integration options, message management and monitoring, and mobile Web services.
