SUSE Linux Enterprise Real Time 12 Service Pack 2

SUSE Linux Enterprise Real Time 12 SP2 is specifically engineered to reduce latency, increase predictability and increase the reliability of time-sensitive, mission-critical applications.

The product is a fully supported real-time operating system based on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2 and is designed to work with SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension 12 SP2.

Organizations that need to tightly control process execution will benefit from a graphical-user interface that provides easy identification of timing problems. Virtualization support reduces hardware costs by increasing the density of real-time systems on a single server or allowing a single server to support both real-time and standard-virtual machines.
