SUSE Appliance Program
Software Appliances Are the Future of Application Deployment. Are You On Board?
In today's competitive marketplace, ISVs are looking for every available competitive advantage. Software appliances provide that advantage, shortening sales cycles and extending existing applications to the cloud. Novell's SUSE® Appliance Program is the fastest and easiest way for ISVs to create, support, and go to market with software appliances.
Enter New Markets. Lower Support and Development Costs. All With Appliances.
Enterprises and ISVs alike are looking to simplify operations and reduce costs. Software appliances, pre-configured and pre-installed images including an application, middleware, and operating system, provide ISVs a delivery platform that simplifies installation and maintenance. Because appliances are pre-configured applications ready to run on any hardware, installation and maintenance time is dramatically reduced. This benefit lowers barriers to entry for customers while reducing both customer and ISV support costs. Just as importantly, software appliances pave the way to cloud deployment, a rapidly-growing customer requirement.
The SUSE Appliance Program is the fastest and easiest way for ISVs to create and maintain software appliances. The program provides technology, support, and go-to-market resources for ISVs. Get started today or learn more about appliances and their benefits.
