''SQL Remote'': SQL Remote technology is based on a store and forward architecture that allows occasionally connected users to synchronize data between SQL Anywhere databases using a file or message transfer mechanism.
== Differences between SAP ASE and SAP Sybase SQL Anywhere ==

'''SQL Anywhere''' databases are designed for a full range of functionality including enterprise servers, embedded applications, desktop servers, remote offices, and mobile applications. The SQL Anywhere database is designed to be self managing, requiring no DBA to constantly maintain the database system. Everything is in the box with SQL Anywhere.
SQL Anywhere is a lot cheaper: purchase price, licensing fees, AND the price you won't have to pay for all the technical support. Especially because you only have one thing to buy.
'''<u>The SQL Anywhere database is light weight, but still offers full enterprise features such as:</u>'''
* High Availability
* Database Clustering
* Snapshot Isolation
* Materialized Views
* Built-in Web Services Server
* Self-tuning Query Optimizer
<u>'''SAP ASE is a fully featured enterprise database server designed specifically for mission-critical data management systems and ASE offers features such as:'''</u>
* High Availability
* Encrypted Columns
* Advanced Security
* Distributed Transactions
* Content Management
* Data Partitioning
For example, SAP ASE is having multiple components for respective functionality and expensive compared to SQL Anywhere: if you want to replicate data between Oracle and ASE, you have to buy ASE, then you have to buy Replication Server, then you have to buy the Oracle version of something call "Replication Server Options". With SQL Anywhere, MobiLink is in the box, and so is the interface for Oracle. And the docs are all in one Help file too.
