Interoperability
SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 gives you the lowest-cost, most manageable solution for mixed Linux and Windows computing.
By working seamlessly with your existing technologies, SUSE Linux Enterprise turns boundaries into bridges to make your IT work as one.
Why does interoperability between Linux and Windows matter? Because without it, your infrastructure costs more to run and is more complex and risky. Only SUSE® Linux Enterprise 11 gives you the highest-performing solution for Linux/Windows virtualization, so your consolidation and disaster recovery investments deliver greater ROI. And for end users, SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop and OpenOffice.org work exceptionally well with Windows and Microsoft Office, enabling maximum productivity at the lowest cost. Recommended by Microsoft, SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 delivers a smooth and reliable computing experience from desktop to data center.
But interoperability doesn't stop there. For the first time, you can run ASP.NET applications on Linux. Reduce costs and increase performance with the platform that powers supercomputers but gives your budget a break. And SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 supports open standards, so you can manage heterogeneous environments of Linux, Windows and UNIX from your choice of management solution. Don't just simplify your environment; increase your flexibility and choice too.
Novell's commitment to interoperability and strong partnership with Microsoft help bridge the gap between open source and proprietary technologies. This allows you to lower costs, complexity and risk across your organization.
Get SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 today, and make interoperability your reality.
