In this paper we present an overview of the self-management features of SQL anywhere, a full-function relational database system designed for frontline business environments with minimal administration. SQL Anywhere can serve as a high-performance workgroup server, an embedded database that is installed along with an application, or as a mobile database installed on a handheld device that provides full database services, including two-way synchronization, to applications when the device is disconnected from the corporate intranet. We illustrate how the various self-management features work in concert to provide a robust data management solution in zero-administration environments.
