SQL Anywhere current release

[Former Member]

EXCELLENT! SAP has now folded SQLA into their product line.

ianywhere.com now takes me to SAP.

A "search" of the SAP website for the term "SQL Anywhere current release" offers me 915 results.

A "search" of the SAP website for the term "SQL Anywhere supported releases" offers me 1,470 results.

Perhaps the answer I am looking for is buried somewhere in that list, but since the first MANY pages are unrelated videos and 'success stories", I gave up trying to find what I wanted to know.

Congratulations SAP on burying SQL Anywhere.

Interesting enough, that the following "Database Solutions" page files SQL Anyhwere under "Mobile Data Management" only - e.g. the "Embedded Database Management" lists Advantage Server...

Sigh.

Just an FYI Volker - we are working on getting SQL Anywhere added to the embedded database management list. Thats all I can say without going on a full-fledged rant 🙂

Hmmm, thank you for your feedback. I don't know why your search is not coming up with the answer (I tried a number of other searches and didn't get the right answer either). I'll make sure that someone takes a look at this issue and tries to improve it.

In the meantime, you can find the SQL Anywhere Platform Support Matrix - which includes the information that you are looking for: the current release - at http://www.sybase.com/detail?id=1002288. I'm not sure if this page has been moved/copied over to the SAP website yet... but I would expect it to get there "soon" (if it isn't there yet).

The SAP Community Network aka SCN is where I found this link: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-35654

SCN contains a lot of interesting stuff and some more marketing thingies. The links to the videos on Youtube I've never seen before, looks like they've been added recently.

All technical information about SQL Anywhere is found in the SAP Community Network:
http://scn.sap.com/community/sybase-sql-anywhere.

We've began to migrate content there, so you'll find documents such as the supported platforms matrix (the link that Reimer mentioned), whitepapers, etc.

Hm, unfortunately, the "Goto: Discussion (Forum)" link there does not take one to this great forum here...

What am I to think about that?

The best starting point for SQL Anywhere information on the SAP web site is http://scn.sap.com/community/sybase-sql-anywhere.
