SUSE Linux Enterprise: Differentiation Through Interoperability
Overview
Heterogeneous IT environments are a fact of life in large organizations. According to recent Gartner research, more than two thirds of all enterprise data centers operate mixed hardware and software environments. So, however appealing a technology monoculture might seem to hard-pressed administrators, most will have to continue making the best of messy, organic diversity.
IT managers don't need another forklift roadmap from their vendors to perfect order and efficiency, but hardware and software products that work together simply, reliably, securely and affordably. They need the flexibility to grow and adapt their environments to changing business needs without forced choices that limit their future options.
Read this Novell paper to see why these managers must continue to contend with data centers divided between two dominant operating environments--Linux and Windows--with minimal interoperability, separate management tools, and distinct administrative skill sets, why that's a perfect prescription for institutional inefficiency, and how they can address that inefficiency with Novell's SUSE® Linux Enterprise product.
