●● Do-No-Evil Saturday – Part III: Novell and SUSE-based Products

Posted in Marketing, Microsoft, Novell, Servers, SLES/SLED, Turbolinux, Virtualisation at 1:42 am by Dr. Roy Schestowitz

Datamation introduces a product which does not necessarily require Novell or SUSE, but nonetheless its existence and value is attributed to the company.

“We wanted to make applications that respond to the way people really use their computers rather than the way engineers think people ought to use them,” said Barney. “SUSE Linux desktop is much more user-friendly than desktop Linux has been in the past.”

Novell has shipped SLERT, which is a very key product.

With Novell’s real-time technology, customers can segment portions of their processors for high-priority mission-critical workloads, as well as ensure that other system processes and tasks do not interrupt them.

As usual, Concurrent will be a Novell reseller (this is not necessarily news at all, unlike the new release).

Real-time Linux system vendor Concurrent will resell Novell’s SUSE Linux OS, it says. Concurrent’s real-time multi-core x86 technology has long been used in Novell’s “SLERT” offering (SUSE Linux Enterprise Real Time 10), and now Concurrent plans to resell SLERT, along with graphical real-time application development tools optimized for the distribution.

In Processor.com, Novell’s Joe Wagner talks about the virtualisation in general. Interesting enough is the proximity of his own quote and Microsoft’s quote. It makes the two companies seem like an inseparable pair.

Joe Wagner, senior vice president and general manager of systems and resource management at Novell (www.novell.com), recommends virtualization as a way to consolidate physical servers and make better use of the servers that you already have. “In the data center, the generic implementation has been to put an individual physical server for every type of workload,” Wagner says.

A new appliance server from Etegro uses SUSE Linux.

The new appliance server is based on Novell SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 and pre-installed Dr.Web Security Suite for Unix Appliance solution from Doctor Web, Ltd. used to protect computer networks from viruses and unwanted e-mail.

Moving on to a company that shares Novell’s sins, Turbolinux brings its innovative gadget to the United kingdom.

The “Wizpy”, which supports an English control panel along with over a dozen other languages, is the ideal accessory for any Linux user and makes a perfect accompaniment to XePhi Computer’s range of desktop and laptop computers or for any users’ existing Linux based operating system.

This used to be an interesting product that amazes, but after the deal with Microsoft it’s hardly anything to rave about. █
