iAnywhere Solutions and SuSE Linux
Unveil Alliance
iAnywhere Solutions Inc, a subsidiary of Sybase Inc, is working with SuSE
Linux in a technology alliance that provides access to continuing Linux
developments at SuSE as well as support for the optimization of SQL Anywhere
Studio for SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8.
"With SQL Anywhere Studio, our customers now have access to one of the
market
leading solutions for mobile data management," said Uwe Heine, chief alliance
officer at SuSE Linux. "As a result, these companies can take advantage of new
opportunities for realizing technically advanced and innovative solutions
under a secure and flexible server operating system."
"Linux has become increasingly important for medium-sized firms and large
corporations due to the cost benefits it provides and its efficiency," said
Mike Darabos, Manager Strategic Projects Europe, at iAnywhere Solutions.
"Partnering with SuSE will help iAnywhere Solutions to reach an even broader
base within this growing community of Linux developers."
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 offers corporate users a secure, stable and
reliable platform on which to build next generation applications. This
alliance enables SuSE customers to leverage SQL Anywhere Studio, the market-
leading database for mobile, embedded and small to medium sized business
environments, to create flexible, reliable database-powered enterprise
applications.
In addition to iAnywhere Solutions, several leading producers of hardware
and
applications such as AMD, Borland, Computer Associates, Fujitsu Siemens
Computers, Fujitsu Japan, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Intel, NEC, Progress Software
and SAP are also supporting the SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8. SuSE Linux not
only reduces the amount of effort and expenditure required to test
compatibility but, above all, it allows more rapid and efficient development
of application software for the standardized Linux operating system.
