Sybase: Managing and mobilizing information to the point
of action
For more than 20 years, Sybase has been a leader in developing
and expanding innovative database technology. Since our founding in
a Berkeley, Calif., home in 1984, we have earned the trust of many
of the world’s leading companies for our ability to manage
information and deliver unsurpassed levels of data reliability and
security. Today, Sybase is the largest enterprise software and
services company exclusively focused on managing and mobilizing
information. With our global solutions, enterprises can extend their
information securely and make it useful for people anywhere using
any device.
Our business strategy: The Unwired
Enterprise
Sybase enables customers of all sizes to
unwire their enterprises and make information available from the
data center to the point of action, and back, anytime, anywhere. Our
open, cross-platform software solutions make it possible for
companies to optimize and enhance the investments they already own,
link the valuable data resources they already have in place, and
securely extend the reach of their business-critical information to
users on the front lines—giving them a financial and productivity
edge across all areas of their business.
Our focus on the market
Sybase is the vendor
of choice for a loyal, global customer base—81 of the Fortune 100
use Sybase technology—and is a leading presence in key vertical
markets including financial services, telecommunications, healthcare
and government. The Top 10 global banks and securities firms rely on
Sybase to deliver and process thousands of financial trades—in real
time—on Wall Street and they trust Sybase with their financial
exchanges from London to Singapore. In the retail market, department
stores use Sybase information mobility solutions to eliminate
traditional cash registers (and long lines), enhancing shopping
experiences and increasing average ticket sales. In the government
sector, agencies use Sybase solutions to mobilize supply management
systems, cutting ship inspection times in half and reducing the time
