“The feedback from users is excellent— they report perfect availability and low response time for SAP ERP running on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. Of course, the business is more interested in performance of the particular solution than the platform behind—the concern is much more whether that platform is delivering to the agreed service levels. In our experience, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server provides a robust, high-performance platform for SAP ERP, even on relatively low-cost Intel low-cost Intel processor-based hardware.”
“Adopting SUSE Linux Enterprise Server as our preferred platform for clustered SAP environments solved the reliability challenges we had been experiencing.”

“We have reduced administration effort by almost 50 percent, thanks to the easy manageability of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. Staff productivity has also increased by 20 percent.”
“We’ve been very impressed with the performance, availability and reliability of our converged system for SAP S/4HANA, which we see as the result of the tight synergy between HPE hardware, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications and SAP HANA.”
“We can process double the number of check images per day with 40 percent fewer mainframe cores with the SUSE solution.”
“For us, the investment into SUSE Linux Enterprise Server on IBM POWER clearly paid off. We are extremely satisfied with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server as an operating system—our virtual servers are fast and stable, with no requirement for extensive performance tuning or reboots.”
“We reboot some of our Microsoft Windows Server systems once a week to maintain consistent performance. This is simply not required for the applications we run on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, making it easier for us to provide IT services without interruption.”
“High performance and straightforward manageability were both key requirements for the new platform. Of all the solutions we considered, we were most impressed with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications. In particular, we liked the flexibility that the SUSE solution offered around memory and kernel optimization, and high-availability configurations.”
“Now that we have proven the effectiveness of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server in the healthcare sector, we are looking at other industries that could benefit, such as education and government. We hope to focus more on Linux solutions in the future, so we plan to recommend this SUSE solution to clients in many other sectors.”
“Supported by this stable, secure, high-performance architecture from SUSE, we’re now on the right track for further expansion, so we can serve even more customers across Egypt.”
