Sybase Enterprise Connect™ Data Access (ECDA) is an integrated set of software applications and connectivity tools that allows you to access data within a heterogeneous database environment. ECDA gives you the ability to access a variety of LAN-based, non-Sybase data sources, as well as mainframe data sources. It consists of components that provide transparent data access within an enterprise. You require a specific ECDA component for each actively supported non-ASE database that does not already provide an Open Server interface. This is required for replication to the non-ASE database.
Sybase SQL Anywhere has an Open Server interface and
does not require ECDA.
See the Replication Server Options Overview Guide.
