SUSE Virtualization: Don’t just talk – take action
Overview of the SUSE product portfolio
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) is the highly secure and reliable Linux platform for critical workloads – from SAP applications to AI infrastructures. With SLES, companies gain a scalable, high-performance foundation for their IT landscape that ensures maximum stability, security, and compliance. Ideal for use in hybrid and cloud environments, SLES seamlessly supports the integration of modern technologies such as AI, machine learning, and containerization.
Whether for traditional enterprise applications or innovative AI solutions, SLES provides the performance and flexibility you need for a future-proof IT environment. Combined with SUSE AI, it enables end-to-end, open-source-based solutions – from infrastructure to AI applications.
Rancher is the central management platform for anyone relying on containers. With Rancher, different Kubernetes clusters can be managed, processes can be standardized and automated, and global security policies can be enforced – in any environment: in the public cloud, on-premises, on virtual machines, or at the edge.
Open-source technologies in the software stack ensure that DevOps teams can get up to speed quickly. In addition, there is paid business support available through SUSE Rancher Prime.
SUSE Virtualization is the open-source virtualization solution for hyperconverged infrastructures. It is based on Kubernetes and uses its API as the automation language for both containers and virtual machines. When used together with Rancher, workloads can be managed efficiently on a single platform.
This reduces the complexity of the IT infrastructure while increasing consistency and operational efficiency.
SUSE AI provides tailored AI solutions based on proven open-source technologies. With our expertise, we help companies seamlessly integrate machine learning and advanced data analytics into their existing IT infrastructure. Benefit from scalable, flexible solutions that make the most of your data while ensuring compliance and security.
These solutions enable you to develop innovative AI applications quickly and efficiently – from data preparation to model deployment. With SUSE AI, you stay at the forefront of technology while relying on transparency, interoperability, and the freedom of open source. Discover how we can accelerate your digital transformation and strengthen your competitiveness.
SUSE Security is the only Kubernetes-native security platform. It can be integrated into existing Kubernetes architectures and ensures container security throughout the entire lifecycle. Its end-to-end vulnerability management provides a continuous risk profile of threats, while container firewall technology protects the infrastructure.
Security-as-code automation processes and integrated policies help prevent future risks.
Simplify the management of heterogeneous Linux environments with a central platform. Automate provisioning, patching, and compliance – including real-time security updates, role-based access control, and vulnerability scanning – for maximum security, seamless compliance (e.g. ISO 27001, GDPR), and scalable efficiency across your IT infrastructure.
