Mar 14, 2005 : Opsware Supports SUSE Linux 9


📅 - Data center automation software developer Opsware (opsware.com) announced on Monday that it would provide automation support for Novell's (novell.com) SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 platform. The company says porting its solution to Novell's platform will help enterprises realize greater efficiencies, reducing total cost of ownership.

"With growing demand for SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server, customers are asking us for cost effective ways to manage their installations," says David Patrick, vice president and general manager of Linux and open source for Novell. "Opsware's deep automation capabilities provide our customers with a very efficient, highly automated management solution for their Linux installations. We are committed to providing our customers with the most cost-effective Linux platform on the market, and the Opsware solution contributes additional value to our customers.
Opsware's integrated capabilities include automating the complete IT operations lifecycle of servers, including provisioning, ongoing OS management and security.
"As part of their efforts to improve efficiency and lower costs in their data centers, customers are migrating from proprietary UNIX to Linux, and in particular to SUSE LINUX platforms," says Ben Horowitz, president and CEO of Opsware Inc. "This, in turn, drives greater demand for Opsware, as enterprises look to reduce the complexity and time associated with managing these servers. Opsware and Novell share a vision of a highly automated, efficient data center, and this solution is an important step in that direction."
