SQL Anywhere users can issue procedure calls to remote servers that support the feature.

This functionality is supported by SQL Anywhere, Adaptive Server Enterprise, Oracle, and IBM DB2. Issuing a remote procedure call is similar to using a local procedure call.

SQL Anywhere supports fetching result sets from remote procedures, including fetching multiple result sets. As well, remote functions can be used to fetch return values from remote procedures and functions. Remote procedures can be used in the FROM clause of a SELECT statement.
