Build cloud-enabled apps in minutes with new tools

Build and deliver apps to the cloud in mere minutes with the new SUSE Appliance Toolkit

Novell is claiming that Independent software vendors (ISVs) and enterprises can now build applications in minutes instead of days for private and public clouds with the latest version of its SUSE(R) Appliance Toolkit.

The updated toolkit supports the creation of Amazon EC2 images, new virtualisation formats and advanced data centre capabilities allow Linux-powered apps to be easily built, and become portable and cloud-enabled in minutes through the guided appliance building and integrated test-drive feature.

“The software appliance form factor, a pre-configured combination of operating system, middleware and application, provides the ideal bridge to the cloud,” senior vice president and general manager of Novell’s Open Platform Solutions, Markus Rex, said in a statement.

“With SUSE Appliance Toolkit, enterprises and technology providers can create, test and enhance applications for cloud infrastructures, all in a few minutes.”
