Note these changes to the documentation set in Sybase IQ 15.2:

The Time Series Guide contains the descriptions of the SQL functions for time series forecasting and analysis, formerly in Reference: Building Blocks, Tables, and Procedures.
Unstructured Data Analytics in Sybase IQ includes the former contents of Large Objects Management in Sybase IQ, plus instructions about the new full text search capability. See New Features Summary Sybase IQ 15.2.

Sybase IQ and SQL Anywhere Because Sybase IQ is an extension of SQL Anywhere Server, a component of the SQL Anywhere package, Sybase IQ supports many of the same features as SQL Anywhere Server. The IQ documentation set refers you to SQL Anywhere documentation, where appropriate. Only a subset of the functionality in the SQL Anywhere documentation is supported by Sybase IQ. For more information, refer to Appendix A, “Compatibility with Other Sybase Databases” in Reference: Building Blocks, Tables, and Procedures.

You may also need to refer to this SQL Anywhere 11.0.1 documentation, which is included on the SyBooks CD:

SQL Anywhere Server – Database Administration describes how to run, manage, and configure SQL Anywhere databases. It describes database connections, the database server, database files, backup procedures, security, high availability, and replication with Replication Server®, as well as administration utilities and options.
SQL Anywhere Server – Programming describes how to build and deploy database applications using the C, C++, Java, PHP, Perl, Python, and .NET programming languages such as Visual Basic and Visual C#. A variety of programming interfaces such as ADO.NET and ODBC are described.
SQL Anywhere Server – SQL Reference provides reference information for system procedures, and the catalog (system tables and views). It also provides an explanation of the SQL Anywhere implementation of the SQL language (search conditions, syntax, data types, and functions).

The SQL Anywhere 11.0.1 documentation is also available online on the Sybase Web site Product Documentation and in DocCommentXchange.

Most of the Sybase IQ books now contain links directly to online SQL Anywhere 11.0.1 documentation sections referenced in the Sybase IQ documentation.
