  • SQL Anywhere: an Embeddable DBMS
    SQL Anywhere: An Embeddable DBMS Ivan T. Bowman Peter Bumbulis Dan Farrar Anil K. Goel Brendan Lucier Anisoara Nica G. N. Paulley John Smirnios Matthew Young-Lai Sybase iAnywhere Abstract We present an overview of the embeddability features of SQL Anywhere, a full-function relational data- base system designed for frontline business environments with minimal administration. SQL Anywhere supports features common to enterprise-class database management systems, such as intra-query par- allelism, materialized views, OLAP functionality, stored procedures, triggers, and hot failover. SQL Anywhere can serve as a high-performance workgroup server, an embedded database that is installed along with an application, or as a mobile database installed on a handheld device that provides full database services, including two-way synchronization, to applications when the device is disconnected from the corporate intranet. We illustrate how SQL Anywhere’s embeddability features work in concert to provide a robust data management solution in zero-administration environments. 1 Introduction Database systems have become ubiquitous across the computing landscape. This is partly because of the basic facilities offered by database management systems: physical data independence, ACID transaction properties, a high-level query language, stored procedures, and triggers. These facilities permits sophisticated applications to ‘push’ much of their complexity into the database itself. The proliferation of database systems in the mobile and embedded market segments is due, in addition to the features above, to the support for two-way database replication and synchronization offered by most commercial database management systems. Data synchroniza- tion technology makes it possible for remote users to both access and update corporate data at a remote, off-site location.
