 ## Back up SAP ASE (Sybase) database is now generally available
 
 Azure Backup now supports SAP ASE (Sybase) database backups on Azure VMs. Backups stream directly to managed Recovery Services vault of Azure Backup, ensuring security with [Immutability](backup-azure-immutable-vault-concept.md?tabs=recovery-services-vault), [Soft Delete](backup-azure-security-feature-cloud.md?tabs=azure-portal), [Multiuser Authorization](multi-user-authorization-concept.md?tabs=recovery-services-vault), and [Customer Managed Key (CMK)](encryption-at-rest-with-cmk.md?tabs=portal). Data is stored in a Microsoft-managed subscription, isolating it from user environments for enhanced protection.
