Dear Valued Sybase Customer:

This letter provides notification of the end of engineering support for the following Sybase product line.

Replication Agent for SQL Anywhere was originally developed to allow a SQL Anywhere database to participate in a Sybase Replication Server installation as a primary site.  Replication Server is a connection-based technology intended for the two-way replication of transactions.  Since the introduction of Replication Agent for SQL Anywhere, Sybase has developed a flexible, powerful, and easy-to-use technology called MobiLink that provides bi-directional synchronization between SQL Anywhere clients and various back-end databases.  MobiLink can be used as a migration path from Replication Agent for SQL Anywhere when bi-directional synchronization is required between SQL Anywhere and Adaptive Server Enterprise. 

After the end of the Sybase engineering support date, Sybase will continue to make interim releases available (i.e., updates, if any, developed for the product prior to the end of engineering support) as well as retain on-line technical documents related to the product(s) to assist you with technical issues.  In addition to these resources, Sybase Technical Support may be provided under the Advanced Services offerings, for a fee, subject to the availability of knowledgeable resources.  Sybase Professional Services would also be pleased to work with you to identify alternative means to achieve your business goals.

If you have any questions, please call your local Sybase Technical Support Center.  One of our Customer Service representatives will respond to your questions or direct your call to someone who can.  For the number of your closest Technical Support Center, please go to: www.sybase.com/contactus/support.

Thank you for your cooperation in this product transition.  We regret any inconvenience that discontinuing this product may cause your organization.  Our support staff is available to assist you in any way possible.

Sincerely,

Mike Paola

Director of Product Management
