Best choice for developers and desktop users to work.
Using openSUSE Tumbleweed as a host for cluster in processing data on spark engine, It is helping to easily use ssh to reach the cluster and submit the jobs and also to track the logs.
- uses hardware too wisely.
- easy to setup machines.
- easy to ssh the machines hosted.
- Software packages are not always the latest version.
- Some are following EU and non-GPL regulations very strict.
- another distro that fell victim to systemd.
- It is the USER who decide how a server or desktop should look like. NOT someone with some influence with the distro-organisation.
- you are not stuck to the delivery scheme of the release.
- on SUSE’s OBS, you can build for any hardware and for any distro.
- Easy to get into the cluster and track logs.
- Easy to configure.
It contains the newest stable applications including such things as an updated Linux kernel, SAMBA, git, desktops, and office applications.

Score 10 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
We use openSUSE Tumbleweed for development and hosting systems which require latest software versions which are not yet available in openSUSE Leap. With Tumbleweed you install a server and you never have to make version to version upgrades - you just make routine system package updates and you always have the latest software versions. Forever.
- Latest package versions
- Never need to make version to version upgrades
- Works stable
- Sometimes after system update old software configuration does not work
- Newest software versions
- Stable
- Small (in size) Docker image
- Easier development
- Access to latest software

openSUSE Tumbleweed keeps rolling, never breaks
openSUSE Tumbleweed is used as a workstation product for developers. It is suitable for us as it offers a wide range of software packages, tested, and close to the latest release.
It allows us to stay on top of the latest hardware support and also make it simple and painless to develop containerised workloads, in comparison to alternative operating systems.
- Frequent software updates
- Simplified rollback in case of upgrade problems
- Great container-based development support
- Frequent package updates sometimes break proprietary programs
- Transactional updates
- Up-to-date kernel versions
- Podman for containers support
- Faster turnaround in container-based development
- Less effort in integrating the latest versions of development tools
openSUSE Tumbleweed is a fast-moving and quick-updating Linux distribution. It aims to deliver the latest versions of software packages while being automatically tested before each release. openSUSE Leap has a slower release face and is more suited for users looking to use a certain vetted set of packages which only receive bug fixes.
