The clock is ticking! General support for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 12 SP5, SLES for SAP Applications 12 SP5, and SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) HPC 12 SP5 ends on October 31st, 2024. But don’t worry, you have options to ensure continued stability, security, and compliance for your critical systems without a disruptive migration.

Upgrade or Extend? The Choice is Yours

You can either upgrade to the latest version, such as SLES 15, SLES for SAP 15, SLE HPC 15, respectively, or take advantage of SUSE Long Term Service Pack Support (LTSS), now available on AWS Marketplace, Azure Marketplace, and Google Cloud Marketplace. This gives you the flexibility to manage your SUSE Linux Enterprise lifecycle management effectively.

What is SUSE LTSS?

SUSE Long-Term Service Pack Support (LTSS) is an add-on solution that extends the lifecycle of your SLES 12 SP5, SLES for SAP Applications 12 SP5, and SLE HPC 12 SP5 deployments, providing up to 3 additional years of critical security patches and maintenance updates, allowing you to:

  • Maintain Business Continuity: Avoid costly and time-consuming upgrades or reboots. Simply add LTSS to your existing SLES subscriptions and continue receiving the same level of support you are familiar with during the extended lifecycle phase. 
  • Enhanced Security: Receive ongoing security patches and updates to protect your systems from vulnerabilities and ensure compliance.
  • Optimize costs: Avoid the immediate costs and complexities of upgrading while ensuring the stability and predictability of your deployment.
