on new opportunities than ever before,� Chen added. �We look

during our annual TechWave event.� Throughout this week, Sybase
will follow through on its promise of unwiring the enterprise by
unveiling a series of new product releases designed to meet the
needs of developers and end-users alike � from mobility platforms
to data management systems, and developer tools. Additional details
surrounding these innovations and announcements include: The Future
of Mobility: New Mobility Platform For Unwiring The Enterprise
Sybase� Unwired Platform is the next generation architecture for
mobilizing enterprise applications. With this new architecture,
Sybase is fulfilling its promise to unwire the enterprise and
extend it to employees and end consumers by providing a single,
complete mobile platform. Sybase Unwired Platform addresses the
multichannel access gateway (MAG) requirements of enterprises with
a single, strategic architecture that eases development, deployment
and management of strategic mobile applications to a range of
mobile device types. In addition, it streamlines device security
and management, and may significantly reduce a company�s total cost
of ownership by enabling strategic mobile deployments versus
tactical or siloed mobile application approaches. Enhanced
Information Anywhere� Suite Management and Security with Afaria�
6.0 The latest version of Afaria, a core component of the Sybase
Information Anywhere Suite, will include a new relay server
architecture that works across multiple Information Anywhere Suite
components to offer highly secure communications for data
synchronization and mobile device management functions. Additional
capabilities within Afaria 6.0 will be focused on reducing IT
administration costs, including a new policy-based device
management capability, support for Open Mobile Alliance Client
Provisioning (OMA CP), and a local password recovery feature.
Information Management Made Easy: Availability of SQL Anywhere� 11
Users can now take advantage of the latest enhancements in SQL
Anywhere 11. The self-managing, enterprise-caliber database and
synchronization solution has been a leader in enabling robust,
secure applications, and is widely deployed in environments with
little or no onsite IT support. SQL Anywhere 11 boasts over 200 new
features and enhancements and continues to redefine functionality
typically only found in enterprise-class databases. The four
primary areas of enhancement for SQL Anywhere 11 include overall
performance, reliability and scalability, accelerated frontline
analytics, advanced data synchronization and greater freedom and
flexibility for developers. Availability of SQL Anywhere� for the
Web Developer Community SQL Anywhere Web Edition brings the
industry-leading data management and synchronization features of
SQL Anywhere to the Web developer community. Version 11 of SQL
Anywhere provides Web developers with data access APIs commonly
used in Web development, the ability to synchronize with MySQL
databases, a light-weight Web server built into the database able
to run PHP scripts, along with a new Web Edition that allows
developers to deploy free SQL Anywhere Server databases.
Availability of Sybase PowerBuilder� 11.5 for .NET The newest
version of PowerBuilder, the premier 4GL rapid application
development (RAD) tool, continues Sybase�s longstanding commitment
to simplify complex data access, manipulation and presentation
through its patented DataWindow technology, especially for
developers looking to deploy PowerBuilder applications to the .NET
framework. Key enhancements include a more visually appealing user
interface; timely PowerBuilder updates corresponding with releases
of Microsoft technologies for .NET; flexible RMDBMS and application
server support; flexible deployment options and simplified
security. First TPC-C Benchmark Using SQL Anywhere Server SQL
Anywhere version 11 on Dell PowerEdge has achieved outstanding
price/performance results by delivering an audited TPC-C result at
a cost of $0.85 per transaction, demonstrating that
high-performance database applications can be delivered
inexpensively. This TPC-C benchmark using SQL Anywhere achieved
several records, including best price/performance of any system
priced under $65,000, best performance of published TPC-C results
for systems priced under $35,000 and first ever TPC-C benchmark
with a total cost under $20,000. Availability of Sybase Analytic

warehouses, data marts and reporting systems. Its success has
