Red Hat and Sybase are collaborating on a database appliance with integrated virtualization, a first. The virtualization is supposed to provide on-demand resource management and increased database performance. It'll use Sybase's Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) and according to the Standish Group offer a solution that's 15%-37% cheaper than alternative solutions.

Availability is expected in the second half.

The appliance should eliminate the need for separate OS and database patches, with lower installation, configuration and maintenance costs.

Sybase is also going to become a member of the Red Hat Cooperative Resolution Center so mutual customers can call either company to be squared away. It also means that they can have joint labs, end-to-end testing, cross-support training and defined escalation procedures.
