Customers choose Sybase for the same reasons they are
adopting Eclipse – extensibility, flexibility, and the
enormous benefits of open technology. Sybase, an Eclipse Steward since 2002, was one of the first companies to release a commercially available product on the Eclipse framework as a part of an award-winning business process orchestration and monitoring tool. Sybase, a Strategic Developer member
of the Eclipse Organization, is dedicated to broadening the value of
Eclipse to the software development community.
WHY ECLIPSE IS THE FUTURE
Eclipse Enables Best-of-Breed
The Eclipse framework allows developers to build their own
best-of-breed tools by combining Eclipse plug-ins into a customized
tooling environment and by facilitating interoperability and
ease-of-use across heterogeneous tools running in the common Eclipse
environment.
Eclipse Has Strong Community Momentum
The strength and vibrancy of the Eclipse community has made Eclipse the
leading Java development environment. Eclipse’s momentum is
now 1 million users strong and Sybase is excited to be a part of this
community advancing new frontiers in application development
technology.
Eclipse’s Open Framework
Eclipse’s open framework will enable Sybase to build an
end-to-end development environment. Eclipse provides Sybase the
platform and framework on which to develop a complete
solution—from back-end database development to composite
application development to front-end mobile development.
