According to company officials, by partnering with Sybase 365, cellity is able to expand its reach and ensure the largest number of users can access its service-enabling software. Sybase 365 also delivers SMS messages from cellity users to non-cellity users inviting them to join the cellity community.

With an average monthly growth of more than 50 percent, the German start-up has dramatically increased its service uptake, with more than 4.5 million software downloads in over 150 countries worldwide to date, according to Sybase 365.

"Sybase 365's messaging services give us the freedom to actively grow our business," said Sarik Weber, cellity founder and CEO.

Its global operator network, its expansive reach to more than 700 mobile operators, and its high reliability combine to make it an ideal partner for our enterprise."

Sybase 365 said that cellity relies on the messaging services in two key areas for its communicator product.

Also Sybase 365 delivers text messages from existing cellity users to non-cellity users inviting them to join the service.

The initial focus of the Sybase-ANTs partnership will be to develop a version of ANTs' ACS to help Microsoft(R) SQL Server customers to take advantage of Sybase ASE. "Given the already common source code lineage between Sybase ASE and Microsoft SQL Server, the ANTs Compatibility Server will facilitate an easy migration for Microsoft customers limited by SQL Server's scalability for mission-critical applications, which is a strength of Sybase ASE 15," added Dr. Nathan.

"We look forward to partnering with Sybase and enabling Microsoft customers to consolidate applications to Sybase ASE," said Joseph Kozak, chairman and chief executive officer of ANTs Software. "The ANTs Compatibility Server will provide a faster, more cost-effective method to move applications to Sybase - and with minimal to no application rewrite - benefits that no other product we know of can offer."
