Separately licensed components

The following components are licensed separately and must be ordered from Sybase iAnywhere before you can install them. To order a separately licensed component, call Sybase iAnywhere at (800) 801-2069, or visit [external link] http://www.sybase.com/detail?id=1015780.

SQL Anywhere also offers various editions that include certain separately licensed components. See Editions and licensing.

SQL Anywhere security option

With SQL Anywhere you can strongly encrypt database files, and synchronization and client-server communication transport layers.

SQL Anywhere offers the following strong encryption algorithms:

	Included with a separately licensed security option¹	Included with SQL Anywhere²
Database encryption	FIPS-approved AES	AES
Transport layer security	FIPS-approved RSA	RSA
Transport layer security	ECC

¹ The software for strong encryption using ECC or FIPS-certified technology must be ordered separately.

² AES and RSA strong encryption are included with SQL Anywhere and do not require a separate license, but these libraries are not FIPS-certified.

The security option provides Certicom DLLs that implement the encryption algorithms, and additional DLLs that provide an interface between SQL Anywhere software and the Certicom libraries.

The SQL Anywhere security option includes the following:

For Windows operating systems, Certicom Security Builder GSE.

For more information, see number 542 at http://csrc.nist.gov/cryptval/140-1/140val-all.htm.
For Windows Mobile operating systems, Certicom Security Builder GSE.

For more information, see number 316 at http://csrc.nist.gov/cryptval/140-1/140val-all.htm.

For more information about encryption, see Keeping your data secure.

SQL Anywhere CAC Authentication option

For UltraLite databases, the license for CAC Authentication must be ordered separately. In addition, this option requires the SQL Anywhere security option.

SQL Anywhere high availability option

For SQL Anywhere databases, the license for using the Veritas Cluster Server agents or for using database mirroring for failover must be ordered separately.

For information about platform support, see [external link] SQL Anywhere Supported Platforms and Engineering Support Status.

For more information about database mirroring, see Introduction to database mirroring.

For more information about the SQL Anywhere Veritas Cluster Server agents, see Using the SQL Anywhere Veritas Cluster Server agents.

SQL Anywhere in-memory mode option

For SQL Anywhere databases, the license for using the in-memory mode must be ordered separately.

For information about platform support, see [external link] SQL Anywhere Supported Platforms and Engineering Support Status.

For more information about in-memory mode, see -im server option.

MobiLink high availability option

The MobiLink high availability option allows you to group multiple MobiLink servers into server farms of identical servers using the shared state mode. When MobiLink runs in shared state mode it can block the same remote database from synchronizing simultaneously with multiple servers, thereby ensuring data integrity. MobiLink shared state support also enables load balancing and fail over for server initiated sync.

The MobiLink high availability option allows you to run MobiLink servers in shared state mode using the -ss option. See -ss option.

For more information about running MobiLink in a server farm, see Running the MobiLink server in a server farm.

Log Transfer Manager (LTM)

The LTM, which is the SQL Anywhere Replication Agent for Sybase Replication Server, is required for any SQL Anywhere database that participates in a Sybase Replication Server installation as a primary site. The license that is required for the LTM must be ordered separately.

For information about platform support, see [external link] SQL Anywhere Supported Platforms and Engineering Support Status.
