SAP Solution: Suse Linux Enterprise Server

Suse now offers an SAP endorsed app: Suse Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications. In this article, we will take a look at what the premium certification is all about.

What are the benefits of a One Linux platform deployment? The benefits are many and range all the way to cost savings, as a number of companies can attest.

More and more SAP customers aim for a hybrid cloud or multi-cloud approach. Linux can serve as the foundation—also in combination with container technologies like Kubernetes.

Relying on blockchain for certain specific business processes makes sense. SAP supports companies from various industries with blockchain services. Hana and Linux are great examples for being blockchain compatible.

Linux quickly established itself among SAP's existing customers. After all, Hana requires the use of Linux. The use of other innovations in the infrastructure is already taking hold.

SAP recently presented its Hana Innovation Awards. Among them was long-time partner and multiple award winner Suse.

Some SAP customers are beginning or already completing the Hana or S/4-Hana transition this year. This also means using Linux in the future for these companies. A look at the state of play.

Monitoring is also playing an increasingly important role for specialist departments, for example in order to be able to manage various business processes in line with requirements.

Suse has played a decisive role in shaping Linux penetration in IT enterprise deployment. In the SAP environment in particular. This year, open source pioneer Suse celebrates its 25th anniversary. A look back and forward.

With SLES for SAP Applications 12, Suse opens another chapter in SAP Linux usage. New features optimize mission-critical SAP deployment.

Hana deployment is always about High Availability (HA). Anyone using Hana on IBM Power8-based servers with the Suse Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) operating system platform gets sophisticated HA features virtually free of charge.

The topic of security is firmly anchored within Hana Datacenter Readiness. As an OS supplier, Suse provides sophisticated protection against attacks and threats during Hana deployment.
