SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9
An Option for your Server
As an IT executive, you might be considering a move to Linux for any number of reasons: the lack of support for your Windows platforms, the high price tag of new UNIX hardware or the need to trim expensive licensing costs. Regardless, you want your systems to run on a secure, high-performance and cost-effective platform—one that gives you flexibility in deciding the future of your infrastructure. Linux is the platform you’ve been looking for.
Bringing Linux into your enterprise is a logical move. But you want to do it smoothly—without disrupting your business—and for this, vendor choice matters. Novell offers the only Linux distribution with solutions that span the entire enterprise—from the desktop to the data center—unified by common identity management and resource management tools. SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 from Novell features the most advanced Linux technology available and has thousands of applications certified to run on it. What’s more, SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server is backed by a global, enterprise-class Linux ecosystem that includes technical support, consulting services, training and certification, legal protection and an extensive partner network. If you are ready for a successful migration to enterprise-class Linux, you may consider Novell.
GAIN THE TECHNOLOGY ADVANTAGE
More and more organizations are choosing Linux. As you research your own move to Linux—and weigh the merits of various vendors—you’ll see that both Novell and Red Hat provide a high-performance, scalable operating foundation with the 2.6 Linux kernel. Why, then, do more companies prefer Novell for their Linux software? There are some key reasons:
• Unmatched security and performance
• Enterprise-class reliability and scalability
• Quality assurance and testing
• Open source innovation
Unmatched Security and Performance
No matter what platform you use, you want the strongest, most proactive security for the servers that host your mission-critical applications and data. Novell offers the highest levels of security available for Linux, protecting both the server and the applications that run on it. SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 is inherently secure. In January 2005, it achieved the highest level of security and operations certification ever achieved in the Linux market—Common Criteria Evaluation Assurance Level (EAL) 4+. This certification ensures that a product complies with the strict security requirements defined by an international consortium of government and enterprise technologists.
