Interop Ability Benefits

Aside from your people, nothing is more important to the success of your business than the technology that keeps communication flowing, orders moving and data current. But today's heterogeneous IT environment is filled with multiple systems, all with their own set of management processes and protocols. Interoperability issues between these systems make it difficult to control costs and complexity, and hinder your IT organization's ability to drive business effectively.

That's why interoperability between Windows® Server 2008 and SUSE® Linux Enterprise is so critical. It simplifies complexity, bridging the gap between proprietary and open source technology and helping businesses like yours reduce costs, gain new levels of flexibility, streamline operations and respond to new business challenges. Virtualization, identity management, systems management and document format compatibility solutions from Microsoft and Novell make it easier for you to manage your mixed Windows and SUSE Linux Enterprise environments, simplify your data center and increase your ROI. Plus, each solution comes with clearly defined intellectual property rights and joint support from Microsoft and Novell, so you can be up and running quickly and confidently.
