SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) is a secure, adaptable, and easy-to-manage server platform based on Linux, which allows developers and administrators to deploy business-critical workloads on any environment. SLES is optimized for performance, security, and reliability.
Vendor: SUSE
Advantages of implementing SUSE Linux Enterprise Server:
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server supports both traditional system management methods and modern DevOps practices, making it flexible and suitable for various IT environments.
- SLES supports a wide range of hardware platforms, virtualization solutions, and cloud providers, giving organizations the ability to choose the infrastructure that best meets their needs.
- SLES is known for its stability and reliability.
- SLES provides built-in high availability (HA) and clustering capabilities, which are essential for the continuous operation of critical applications.
- SLES, through SUSE Manager, easily and efficiently manages Linux architecture.
- SLES integrates well with container technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes, enabling agile and scalable application deployment.
- SLES prioritizes security, offering advanced features like AppArmor and ensuring compliance with various industry standards.
- SUSE offers comprehensive support services, including 24/7 global support and an extensive knowledge base, allowing for quick resolution of any issues.
- With various subscription options, SLES is a cost-effective solution for optimizing the IT budget
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server offers a range of features:
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server includes a set of APIs and services, enabling the development of applications that can work with the widest range of architectures, servers, data storage, and networking options available.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server ensures compliance with legal regulations across all elements of your environment.
- Each SUSE Linux Enterprise Server subscription includes support for leading hypervisor technologies and cloud platforms, allowing you to get more from underutilized systems and reduce hardware acquisition and maintenance costs.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server facilitates migration to public cloud environments with optimized cloud images ready for deployment on Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Alibaba Cloud, Google Cloud, IBM Cloud, and Oracle.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server supports Linux containers and open-source container engines.
- Modules available in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server enable faster integration with upstream updates.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server allows for full system rollback.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server features a "skip service packs" function, which allows you to bypass previous service pack updates and jump directly to the latest pack.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server provides high energy efficiency through low energy consumption via ARM 64 for its servers and network infrastructure using SLES for ARM and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for Raspberry Pi.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server can track and manage configurations using the remote Salt system.
- With SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, using KIWI, you can utilize a single configuration to create operating system images for physical deployments (DVD, USB), as well as deploy them in hypervisor virtual environments (Xen, KVM, VMware, HyperV), container frameworks, and both public and private clouds. Additionally, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server supports Linux containers and the open-source Docker container engine.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server supports automation, project building, and middleware, integrating them with management and monitoring functionalities (such as RabbitMQ, Prometheus, and Maven).
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server updates security patches without rebooting machines and without waiting for the next maintenance window.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server offers enhanced data security at the hardware level through AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) technology. This technology allows virtual machines to run in encrypted memory, helping protect them from memory attacks by the hypervisor.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server features offline installation, which maintains physical segregation from external networks.
- With SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, you can deploy virtual network functions using Open vSwitch with DPDK (Data Plane Development Kit).
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server reduces downtime by decreasing rebuild times after power restoration with integrated NVDIMM modules that save data in seconds and allow immediate data access after reboot.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server improves application performance with fast local NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) and remote storage devices using NVMe over Fabrics (NoF). By utilizing NVMe, you can fully leverage the benefits of modern semiconductor memory technology.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server enhances resilience and automates processes from the installation stage with automatic code updates using the YaST (Yet another Setup Tool) administrative tool. YaST enables rapid system customization during and after installation. YaST is now written in Ruby, making it open and easy to customize.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server is certified according to Common Criteria at EAL4+ level.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server protects data at rest at no additional software cost. Local and remote disk encryption is supported via cryptctl across all local, cloud, and hybrid installations.
- Shibboleth support in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server enables single sign-on using one identity across different domains for networked computing and internet infrastructure.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Workstation Extension allows you to transform your enterprise-class server into a fully equipped development or administrative workstation to enhance productivity and code quality.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications is the leading Linux platform for SAP HANA, SAP NetWeaver, and SAP S/4HANA solutions and is recommended by SAP.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for POWER provides enterprise-class Linux distribution with optimizations for POWER8 and POWER9 processor-based systems.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for Arm is an enterprise-class Linux distribution optimized for the unique capabilities of 64-bit Arm architectures.
