SAP SQL Anywhere vs. Trellix Data Center Security Suite

SAP SQL Anywhere is better than not using a database, let's be clear there! However, I wouldn't pick it as my first or even second or third choice. I'd recommend looking at other options. Largely, it appears less powerful both in terms of its robustness and general performance and in its implementation of SQL. The standard Sybase utilities provided are lacking in basic features, and the interactive SQL utility is quite horrendous. However, the great thing is it is an ODBC-compliant SQL-compliant relational database.

The suite works well to monitor the day to day unattended activities from support personnel, but in case I need to micro-manage, there are no inbuilt rules and I need to customize the same.

• Good performance with relatively large data sets - its cost-based query optimizer is particularly robust
• ANSI SQL compliant
• Supports T-SQL
• Scales well between the desktop (single user) and client/server installations supporting 50-1000 users

• McAfee’s monitoring and virtual patching solutions

• I think it should be more user friendly for non-technical users.
• More functional functionalities should be added to the object explore when working with a table to transform data/manipulate data.

• Support is a major issue. You need Mcafee premium service for the expected expertise.
• Deployment on Sun Solaris.
• Vulnerability Manager should accept customizations.

Due to support issues only.

We did not get much expertise in the limited support extended by the Mcafee team.

I worked with Oracle for years during my career. I wouldn't select SQL Anywhere to implement a global ATM system with tens of thousands of concurrent connections, but SQL Anywhere is much easier to use and deploy and works very well in workgroup settings. Query performance often exceeds some Oracle versions without having to rely on database tuning.

The Forecepoint product which we evaluated was better but this was a decision taken by the entire group.

• Skilled/experienced resources are less prominent than Microsoft SQL Server or even Oracle, or MySQL, so finding solutions and assistance, if needed, takes more time than it would with other platforms
• You will need to find a good SQL query tool by yourself because the Sybase Central / Interactive SQL utilities are lacking in many basic features, and just generally have a bad user interface

• It has a positive impact on over data security and helps in managing data.
