High-Performance Database System Includes Increased Performance,
Security, Development and Usability Features DUBLIN, Calif., Oct.
10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sybase iAnywhere today announced it is
further strengthening its database management portfolio with the
release of Advantage Database Server(TM) 8.1. Unique in its space,
Advantage Database Server is a high performance embedded
client/server data management system that provides both ISAM
table-based and SQL-based data access, enabling application
developers to easily chart a growth path for legacy database
applications to today's modern techniques. The updated features,
including improved user defined functions, TCP/IP support, and
enhanced SQL performance and replication improvements, will enhance
Advantage Database Server 8.1 with ease-of-use, performance and
efficiency. Advantage 8.1 provides developers with the
functionality they require to easily build scalable business
applications with low administration requirements. "Advantage is
designed specifically for application developers who require
powerful database functionality that is easy to deploy and doesn't
create unnecessary administrative overhead," said Chuck Vertrees,
product manager for Advantage Database Server. "The enhancements
and updates in Advantage 8.1 have allowed us to further enhance the
usability and developer productivity of Advantage. All of the
changes are customer-driven and have been a direct result of
developer feedback." "We are excited about the enhancements
included in Advantage 8.1," said Bill Seven, President/CEO, Include
Software. "During our evaluation of database options, Advantage
proved to be the best choice for our decision criteria-cost,
performance and ease of deployment. Advantage 8.1 further
reinforces our decision to choose Advantage Database."
Functionality Enhancements of Advantage Database Server 8.1 -- User
Defined Functions (UDFs): By encapsulating frequently performed or
complex operations into user defined functions, SQL statements and
scripts become easier to write, understand, and debug. -- TCP/IP
support: The ability to communicate with the Advantage Database
Server using TCP/IP is now available; providing an alternative to
the default proprietary transport implemented using UDP. --
Increased SQL performance: Performance has been improved for many
types of SQL statements with shorter execution times. -- Vertical
Filtering for Replication: It is now possible to define vertical
filters on replicated tables to control which columns of data are
replicated. This provides greater control over the replication
process and allows for more flexible scenarios. For example,
vertical filters make it possible to replicate to a target table
that has fewer columns than the source table. Advantage 8.1 Pricing
and Availability Prices range from $645 for a 5-user license to
$7870 for an unlimited user license. All pricing is for U.S.
versions. Previously purchased versions of Advantage Database can
be upgraded for a percentage of the full product cost. Please call
