system (RDBMS), on Apple "Jaguar" Server. With ASE, system implementers<br />
will be able to deploy high-performance, scalable, database-driven<br />
applications on the Mac platform. Sybase also announced the availability of<br />
a free Developer's Edition of ASE, designed to enable developers to build<br />
and test ASE solutions.</p>
<p>Saves Time and Money</p>
<p>"ASE for Jaguar Server combines the best of both worlds -- Sybase's high<br />
performance, scalable database with Apple's legendary ease of use," said<br />
Dr. Raj Nathan, senior vice president and general manager, Sybase<br />
Enterprise Solutions Division. "With this combination, we are pleased to<br />
provide the Mac community the same superior database capabilities with low<br />
total cost of ownership advantages that our other ASE customers enjoy<br />
today."</p>
<p>ASE 12.5 for Mac OS X Server v10.2 is very easy to install, manage and<br />
support because it:</p>
<p> -- Utilizes the Apple installer for easy, intuitive installation<br />
-- Supports Apple's new Rendezvous technology for zero configuration<br />
-- Dynamically registers the server instantly by setting up host names,<br />
port numbers and creating the necessary interfaces<br />
-- Automatically handles client discovery<br />
-- Reconfigures the database anytime there are changes to the server<br />
configuration, without requiring manual intervention<br />
-- Supports Net-SNMP, allowing network administrators to monitor the<br />
status of the database remotely via SNMP-compatible products such as HP<br />
OpenView<br />
-- Will also generate traps that can be used to activate pagers, send<br />
emails and enable other proactive management actions<br />
-- Features the new Aqua interface for improved usability and consistency<br />
with other Mac OS X applications<br />
-- Offers enterprise-level technical support -- much more timely and<br />
reliable than found in open source solutions</p>
<p>"Jaguar Server is the world's easiest-to-manage UNIX-based server software<br />
and unleashes the power of our new Xserve rack-mount server," said Ron<br />
Okamoto, Apple's vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations. "It is<br />
exciting that Sybase is the first enterprise-class software provider to<br />
leverage Rendezvous to drive down the cost of deploying and managing<br />
large-scale, database-driven applications."</p>
<p>Highly Flexible</p>
<p>Sybase designed Adaptive Server Enterprise to provide customers flexibility<br />
and choice. With the previous introduction of both Open Server(TM) and<br />
Software Developer's Kit for Mac OS X, and the introduction of ASE 12.5 for<br />
Mac OS X Server, v10.2 customers can mix and match between any combination<br />
of HP, IBM, Linux, Mac, SGI, Sun and Windows clients and servers.</p>
<p>In addition, Sybase makes it very easy to port applications from one<br />
operating system to another, and from other vendors' database managers to<br />
ASE. This ability to switch has become increasingly important as IT<br />
executives are learning their options are limited when locked into one OS<br />
platform or database vendor.</p>
<p>"The new corporate licensing scheme of Microsoft has impacted very<br />
negatively on our customers," said Javier Blanque, president of DinamiTec<br />
SA, an Argentinean developer of Intranets for the financial community. "We<br />
are migrating from Microsoft SQL-Server to Sybase ASE for several reasons,<br />
including ASE's multi-platform architecture, transact-SQL compatibility and<br />
relatively low cost of ownership. In addition, ASE always has had better<br />
security against hackers-crackers than SQL-Server."</p>
<p>World-Class Reliability, Availability and Scalability</p>
<p>Sybase's Adaptive Server Enterprise 12.5 has established itself as the<br />
product of choice to support mission-critical applications requiring high<br />
availability, intensive transaction handling and scalability. ASE 12.5 for<br />
Mac OS X Server v10.2 also includes Sybase's advanced XML Management<br />
Package, which provides support for Java and XML. This enables customers to<br />
decrease time-to-market with applications running on "Jaguar" Server,<br />
essentially delivering a quicker return-on-investment.</p>
