Overall Satisfaction with openSUSE Leap
We use openSUSE Leap to run virtual web, proxy, database etc. servers and also we use it as Docker container base image for most containers we run in Kubernetes clusters. It covers our needs in both cases – servers and containers run stable and have a wide range of software packages already precompiled and available in default repositories.
- Small footprint.
- Software packages are well maintained.
- Wide range of software packages available in default repositories.
- Predictable release cycle.
- Software packages are not always the latest version.
- Enterprise grade stability and reliability.
- Easy to manage.
- Small base footprint.
- Wide variety of precompiled software packages in base repositories.
- + We have unified Linux system for virtual servers and Docker containers which makes administrator's maintenance and debugging tasks easier.
- - If all your systems run the same operating system and vulnerability is discovered in it, you have to update all systems in minimum period of time. But we are willing to take this risk in favour of ease of administration of openSUSE Leap. This is the risk you have to weight individually for your company.
openSUSE Leap has wide variety of already precompiled software packages in default repositories. It even has some specific packages in official repositories that are not available in other Linux distribution repositories. It is also very stable and reliable distro - we can predict when new versions will be released and when we should make system upgrades.
