New Features for SP120
SP120 replaces Certicom cryptography services, and introduces new and updated
functionality and properties for Open Client 15.7, Open Server 15.7, and Adaptive Server
Enterprise extension module for PHP 15.7.
- Certicom Replacement
Certicom software, which provides cryptography services for securing storage and transmission of sensitive information, is no longer supported by SAP® Sybase products. These services have been replaced by alternate providers.
- OpenSSL in ODBC, OLE DB, ADO.NET, Open Client, and Open Server
OpenSSL is now supported in Open Server and all SDK components, except jConnect for JDBC.
- FIPS Platform Availability
As a result of Certicom replacement, the FIPS 140-2 compliant cryptographic module for OpenSSL delivered with SP120 is available on these platforms.
- JCE Provider Used by jConnect for JDBC
jConnect now uses JCE Provider in your Java VM that can support the requested algorithm.
- Configuring jConnect to Use a Specific JCE Provider
Configure jConnect to use a specific JCE Provider.
- Enabling FIPS Compliance in jConnect for JDBC
Typically, the default JCE Providers supplied with Java VMs are not FIPS 140-2 certified. To set up FIPS 140-2 compliant connections, you need access to a JCE Provider that is FIPS 140-2 certified.
- Open Client 15.7 and Open Server 15.7 Features
Open Client 15.7 and Open Server 15.7 support Client-Library with updated functionality and new connection properties.
- Adaptive Server Enterprise Extension Module for PHP
Adaptive Server Enterprise extension module for PHP has been enhanced to support loading PHP driver during non-debug time.
