SUSE has announced, as part of its ongoing partnership with SAP AG, that SUSE Linux Enterprise Server has been selected for use with SAP HANA.
Our partnerships with SAP and IBM have enabled thousands of customers to gain from the exciting benefits SUSE Linux has to offer, including decreased operating costs and improved performance, said Michael Miller, vice president of global marketing and alliances, SUSE. SUSE Linux Enterprise Server has been recognised by both SAP and IBM as the operating system for use with SAP HANA based on its technical capabilities and ease-of-use. With SAP, IBM and our ecosystem of alliance partners, we look forward to the ongoing upward trend of customer success as they continue to see the value of implementing Linux within their IT environments.
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server is the Linux operating system selected by SAP as the supported environment for running SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse Accelerator software, the SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search application and the enterprise agent in the SAP StreamWork application. It is now the supported offering for use with SAP HANA, based on its ability to help organizations integrate, secure and manage information assets to reduce complexity and cost.
