Novell, IBM Partner on Integrated Linux Server Stack

Let’s say you own a small to midsize business, and you want to use Linux, but you’re not crazy about the idea of mixing and matching software and servers.

If that’s you, Novell and IBM want to talk to you about their new Integrated Stack for SUSE Linux Enterprise.

This new package combines the SLES (SUSE Linux Enterprise Server) 10 with a mixture of open and proprietary IBM software that runs on top of either IBM System x (previously xServers) or BladeCenter servers.
