whitepaper Sybase Raises the Bar on Database Replication2009-07-31 Sybase
  In the past year, Forrester interviewed 27 Sybase customers who are using Sybase Replication Server to investigate their implementations. Most customers found that Sybase met or exceeded their data movement requirements by offering a reliable, high-performance, flexible solution to support their mission-critical applications. Today, thousands of enterprises rely on Sybase replication technology to support high availability, disaster recovery, data integration, reporting, data distribution, and database migration requirements for Sybase and non-Sybase databases. Furthermore, the latest version, Sybase Replication Server 15.2, delivers improved performance, ease of use, and extended support for heterogeneous databases.
