Description

The F5 Distributed Cloud Platform offers enhanced features, robust security measures, and streamlined operations superior to those provided by native cloud services. This platform is specifically designed to cater to distributed applications operating in multi-cloud, on-premises, and edge settings. As software applications transition into microservices and increasingly rely on APIs, the emergence of complex and highly distributed architectures brings about challenges, escalated costs, and heightened risks. To effectively deliver applications, it is necessary to deploy and manage various appliances, software, and connectivity services. Conventional CDNs and hub-and-spoke networks fall short when it comes to supporting immersive or large-scale SaaS applications. With differing APIs, policies, and levels of observability, there is a pressing need for significant investments in automation. Applications that are distributed across various environments often face unequal protection levels. Furthermore, achieving alignment among DevOps, NetOps, and SecOps during service provisioning and security poses significant challenges, particularly when relying on ticket-based workflows, which can hinder efficiency and responsiveness. Addressing these complexities is crucial for optimizing the management of distributed applications.

Description

SUSE Manager is specifically engineered to aid your enterprise DevOps and IT Operations teams in simplifying processes and reclaiming oversight of your IT assets through a unified tool that facilitates the management of Linux systems across diverse hardware architectures, hypervisors, containers, IoT devices, and cloud platforms. It streamlines the provisioning, patching, and configuration of Linux servers and IoT devices, enabling quicker, more consistent, and repeatable server deployments, which in turn helps enhance operational efficiency and lower expenses. Furthermore, with its automated capabilities for monitoring, tracking, auditing, and reporting on your systems, virtual machines, and containers throughout development, testing, and production environments, SUSE Manager allows you to maintain adherence to both internal security standards and external compliance regulations. This comprehensive approach not only optimizes resource usage but also bolsters the overall security posture of your IT infrastructure.
