Introduction to optional add-ons that extend functionality while maintaining a small installation footprint.
SUSE Virtualization (Harvester)
SUSE's Cloud Native product family introduces additional value with greater security assurances, extended lifecycles, access to focused architectures and Kubernetes advisories. It will also offer options to get production support for innovative Cloud Native projects. With SUSE's Cloud Native, installation assets are hosted on a trusted registry owned and managed by SUSE.
SUSE Virtualization is a modern, open, interoperable, hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) solution built on Kubernetes. It is an open-source alternative designed for operators seeking a cloud-native HCI solution. SUSE Virtualization runs on bare metal servers and provides integrated virtualization and distributed storage capabilities.
In addition to traditional virtual machines (VMs), SUSE Virtualization supports containerized environments automatically through integration with Rancher. It offers a solution that unifies legacy virtualized infrastructure while enabling the adoption of containers from core to edge locations.
