Highly optimised, extraordinarily powerful, thoroughly documented, mature, and bulletproof. This is small potatoes considering this database manager is the real deal. In fact, the only thing you can take away from Sybase ASE for Linux is that its version, 11.0.3, is not what Sybase is shipping to paying customers. And you can download Sybase ASE from Red Hat's and Caldera's Web sites.Įver the sceptic, I expected the free Linux version of Sybase ASE to be somehow crippled, lamed by its maker so it wouldn't compete with Sybase's other products. But Linux vendors Red Hat and Caldera include Sybase ASE with their latest releases. I suppose there is a catch: you can't get this from Sybase. The only requirements are that you run it on Linux and don't try to make it work on any other operating system, and you don't go public with performance benchmark results. No restrictions, no tricky licence, no catch. Before I go any further, I'll spare you the suspense: yes, Sybase is letting Linux users run Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) 11.0.3 for Linux, for free.
