Taking aim at the next generation of computing — virtualization and the cloud — Novell on Tuesday unveiled Suse Linux Enterprise 11. Suse Linux Enterprise 11 has been optimized for the major hypervisors — VMware ESX, Microsoft Hyper-V and Xen. It runs on the x86, Itanium, IBM Power and IBM System z platforms, all of which are used in IT infrastructure virtualization. Also, it will be certified and supported in Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud. In addition, the operating system offers tighter ties with Microsoft technologies.
