Salt Lake City, Utah – Novell Monday laid out a technical strategy that would let users mix and match physical and virtual machines along with management tools, identity services, collaboration software, and open source operating systems.
The company said its new strategy, which it has code-named Fossa, would include new enhancements to its virtualization, Linux, orchestration, policy, identity, compliance, and collaboration tools.
“Enterprise computing will change and we will be at the center of it,” said Jeff Jaffe, Novell's CTO, said during the opening keynote of the company’s annual Brainshare conference. He said the key word would be “agility,” which he said would be defined in large part by policy and identity enablement within the Novell infrastructure software stack.
Jaffe drew a laugh from the roughly 5,500 attendees when he said Fossa stood for “free and open source software plus agility.”
Novell also said it would begin development on SuSE Linux 11, including alignment with its agility vision. Novell said SuSE Linux Enterprise 11 would also include the latest virtualization technology and desktop improvements. Novell said it also would rely heavily on work from the openSuSE community.
Novell also announced a partnership to optimize SAP on SuSE Linux Enterprise and with Novell’s virtualization and identity platforms. The companies also will optimize Novell’s OS for SAP’s data center infrastructure.
Novell’s Fossa, however, is a way for Novell to rationalize how all its infrastructure tools, from Linux to ZENworks, fit together into what can be thought of conceptually as a single architecture.
The development of flexible, adaptable infrastructure certainly is not revolutionary as vendors such as HP, IBM and Microsoft have been working toward that goal for several years.
“The question is what is fundamentally different from what Novell wants to do with Fossa over what they are doing today,” said Mark Levitt, an analyst with IDC. “This feels more like an internal review of their vision and roadmap and I don’t think Fossa will be a dramatic change but a validation of the direction they have been going.”
