Sybase has released a free production database for Linux.
The database maker announced on Wednesday the availability of a version of its Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) database for Linux. David Jacobson, a marketing director at Sybase, said the database was produced for customers who want to run a test pilot of a commercial database on a Linux box. "Many of our customers use Unix machines and want to move to Linux," Jacobson said. "As they are constrained by budget, they are using free open-source databases to try Linux out. But we want to give them the opportunity to try ASE." The free version, called ASE Express Edition for Linux, offers core ASE 12.5.2 functionality but will work only on a single-processor machine, storing a maximum of 5GB of data and using a maximum of 2GB of RAM.
