Abstract
This IDC Market Perspective discusses SUSECON 2024, which showcased the company's expansion beyond its traditional OS offerings into cloud, container management, and AI platforms. Key announcements at the conference included the launch of Liberty Linux Lite for ongoing CentOS Linux support, the acquisition of observability vendor StackState, and the introduction of the SUSE AI Early Access Program. These moves underscore SUSE's commitment to addressing emerging market needs, particularly in cloud-native environments and AI, positioning the company for growth in these dynamic sectors.
"SUSE's announcements at SUSECON 2024 highlight the company's strategic intent to continue expanding its portfolio beyond enterprise Linux into AI and cloud-native technologies, while also enhancing its support offerings for enterprise Linux users through offerings such as Liberty Linux Lite," said Michele Rosen, research manager, IDC's Open GenAI, LLMs, and the Evolving Open Source Ecosystem practice.
