Source Software By 2012, 80 percent of all commercial software will include elements of open-source technology. Many open-source technologies are mature, stable and well supported. They provide significant opportunities for vendors and users to lower their total cost of ownership and increase returns on investment. Ignoring this will put companies at a serious competitive disadvantage.

agreement is a great catalyst to helping us reduce the complexity of our Linux environment as we standardize our Linux infrastructure with SUSE Linux Enterprise. ... That’s why we have selected Novell as our preferred Linux partner to support our Linux infrastructure.” Matthew O'Neill, Group Head of Distributed Systems Credit Suisse “For us, interoperability is key. We see both Windows and SUSE Linux Enterprise as strategic platforms going forward, and we're very pleased to see Microsoft and Novell, who support these platforms, step up and work on interoperability.” Tom Sanzone, Chief Information Officer Deutsche Bank “Microsoft and Novell's agreement gives us the benefit of choice in platforms and tremendous flexibility that will help make our company more competitive and efficient” Clemens Jochum, Chief Technology Officer Wal-Mart “We have wanted information technology vendors to deliver interoperability and IP assurance between multiple platforms for some time now, and we are pleased that Microsoft and Novell are committed to fulfilling that need.” Nancy Stewart, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer Customer Endorsements
our initial results, we estimate the software cost of Xen and SUSE Linux Enterprise for virtualizing Windows systems is just 10 percent of competitor solutions. The difference is even greater if you consider that other solutions require more expensive hardware.” Norihito Kuniyoshi, MD BMW After extensive testing by BMW IT Research Center staff in North America and Germany, the automobile manufacturer is going to deploy virtualized data center solutions using SLES10 with the open source Xen hypervisor on x86 servers using dual-core processors with Intel* Virtualization Technology. Sumitomo Electric Industries “Sumitomo Electric Industries is using SLES with integrated Xen Virtualization software to extend the useful life of its platforms, minimize additional hardware investment through more efficient use of resources, and operate an effective disaster recovery site.” Nobuhiro Nakamura, Systems Technology Group AIG “It's critical that our technology offerings be forward-looking and be integrated and positioned to support our mission of delivering high value at a market price. Microsoft and Novell's commitment to working together to deliver interoperability and IP assurance helps us achieve that mission.” Mark Popolano, Chief Information Officer Customer Endorsements

Server Setting Scalability World Records Clocking 4.35 Terabytes per second in STREAM Triad Tests, 1,024-Processor Altix 4700 beats current record four times over. The feat was achieved on an SGI Altix 4700 system powered by 1,024 Intel® Itanium® 2 processors running under a single copy of SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server 10 from Novell with SGI ProPack™ 5 for Linux. The configuration is the largest single system image (SSI) attainable on a Linux® OS system. The record-breaking Altix 4700 system is now installed in Munich, Germany, at the Leibniz Computing Centre Munich (LRZ). LRZ houses Germany's National Supercomputer System, and the Altix 4700 installation incorporates 4,096 Intel® Itanium® 2 processors, 17TB of global shared memory, and a 330TB SGI InfiniteStorage solution. http://www.sgi.com/company_info/newsroom/press_releases/2006/july/stream_1024p.html http://www.novell.com/success/leibniz_computing_centre.html
