Sybase Unveils Information Anywhere Suite, Furthers Leadership in the Unwired Enterprise
DUBLIN, Calif. – June 26, 2006 – Sybase, Inc. (NYSE: SY), a leading provider of enterprise-class information management and mobility software, today announced the launch of Sybase® Information Anywhere® Suite, a secure, scalable mobile software platform that addresses the converging IT requirements of next-generation mobility solutions. Combining mobile email, device management, enterprise-to-edge security and enterprise application enablement, Information Anywhere Suite enables enterprise customers to securely extend back-end enterprise applications and business processes to remote workers on the frontlines.
“For the past five years, Sybase has intently focused its engineering and acquisition strategy on delivering the Unwired Enterprise,” said John Chen, Sybase chairman, CEO and president. “With the launch of Information Anywhere Suite, Sybase is the first software provider to offer enterprise customers a single integrated platform for mobile email, security and device management, and application enablement, underscoring our leadership in the Unwired Enterprise space.”
Information Anywhere Suite supports a broad range of devices, connectivity modes and information sources, and its unique Always Available architecture enables frontline workers to access email, data and enterprise systems and applications anytime, anywhere, from any device —with or without a “live” connection to the corporate network. Unlike alternatives from other vendors, the elements of the suite uniquely share a common technology infrastructure requiring fewer resources from the communications network. Information Anywhere Suite is built on market-leading Sybase iAnywhere® mobile technology relied on by thousands of organizations worldwide.
“Mobile enterprise deployments are evolving from single applications such as email or field services into a strategic part of the core IT backbone,” said Terry Stepien, president, Sybase iAnywhere. “The delivery of Information Anywhere Suite addresses this strategic shift in requirements and enables the next generation of enterprise mobility solutions.”
“Sybase iAnywhere has assembled a strong set of best-of-breed solutions for the mobile enterprise and developed a clear set of value propositions tailored for its target customers,” said Warren Wilson, practice director, Summit Strategies. “The company has a roster of high-profile customers that can showcase Information Anywhere Suite’s capabilities and demonstrate how mobility can drive new revenues, enable new business processes and provide strategic advantage.”
Information Anywhere Suite capabilities:
· Heterogeneous Mobile Email Delivery—Information Anywhere Suite provides a powerful out-of-the-box solution for push delivery of data such as email, calendar, contacts and tasks to mobile workers in real time. Supporting a variety of device types and groupware applications, Information Anywhere Suite also provides interoperability of its mobile email, management and security capabilities, relieving the compatibility issues that can be encountered when implementing disparate solutions.
· Mobile Device Management—Information Anywhere Suite allows companies to centrally manage and support devices, applications, data and communications regardless of the available bandwidth. It creates a bridge of system control, user support and information flow between the frontlines and the enterprise.
· Mobile Device Security—With Information Anywhere Suite, companies can protect data, mobile devices, applications and remote users against unauthorized access and other security vulnerabilities with methods like wiping data, disabling access to lost or stolen devices and encrypting data transmissions.
· Mobile Enterprise Application Enablement— Developers and IT professionals can leverage Information Anywhere Suite to build custom mobile solutions that extend existing enterprise information sources (including databases, application and messaging servers and intranets) and applications (including SAP, Business Objects and Remedy) directly to mobile devices.
Availability
Information Anywhere Suite is expected to be available in Q3 2006. Additional information is available at http://www.sybase.com/informationanywheresuite.
