Specialization

SUSE Rancher & SUSE Linux experts for enterprise Kubernetes

Numow is the SUSE-specialized partner in the region: we architect, migrate and operate Rancher-managed Kubernetes, Harvester HCI and SLES estates for enterprises across the UAE and the wider Gulf.

Why SUSE

The platform, end to end

Enterprises standardize on SUSE’s stack because every layer is open source with commercial support behind it. There is no proprietary hypervisor bill waiting at renewal, no per-core licensing trap, no roadmap you cannot audit. You keep the portability of open source and gain the contractual accountability production demands — SLAs, certified engineers and a security response you can hold to.

The payoff is one control plane from the datacenter to the edge. Rancher manages every cluster wherever it runs — RKE2 on your metal, K3s in the branch, managed Kubernetes in the cloud — on top of Harvester and SUSE Linux Enterprise. One operating model, one RBAC scheme, one security posture. That is the platform we design, migrate to and run for our clients.

The SUSE stack

datacenter → edge

  1. 05

    Workloads / NeuVector security

  2. 04

    Rancher — multi-cluster management

  3. 03

    RKE2 - K3s Kubernetes

  4. 02

    Harvester HCI - Longhorn storage

  5. 01

    SUSE Linux Enterprise

Every layer open source, every layer commercially supported — one subscription, one accountable vendor.

The portfolio

Six products, one practice

Each product stands on its own. Together they replace an entire stack of proprietary licenses — and we deliver all six under a single engagement.

Enterprise OS

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server

Hardened, supported Linux for mission-critical workloads — including SAP, HPC and edge. We design, deploy, migrate and support SLES estates end to end.

Kubernetes Management

SUSE Rancher

One control plane for every Kubernetes cluster you run — on-premises, cloud or edge. We build production Rancher platforms with RBAC, GitOps and monitoring wired in.

Kubernetes Distributions

RKE2 & K3s

Security-focused RKE2 for the datacenter, lightweight K3s for edge and branch. Certified distributions we deploy, harden and operate daily.

Hyperconverged Infrastructure

SUSE Harvester

Open HCI that runs VMs and containers on the same metal — the modern exit path from proprietary virtualization licensing.

Cloud-Native Storage

Longhorn

Distributed block storage for Kubernetes with snapshots, backups and cross-cluster replication — storage that moves with your workloads.

Container Security

SUSE Security (NeuVector)

Zero-trust container security: runtime protection, network segmentation and compliance scanning across your clusters.

Architecture, migration and 24/7 operations for all six — delivered by one accountable team, not six vendors.

Engagement

How we engage

Four ways in — from a first architecture workshop to handing us the pager for your entire SUSE estate.

01

Design & deployment

Production-grade SUSE platforms — from a single SLES estate to multi-cluster Rancher with Harvester underneath — architected, built and documented.

02

Migration

CentOS and RHEL to SLES, VMware to Harvester, unmanaged Kubernetes to Rancher — staged migrations that keep production running.

03

Operations & support

24/7 operation of SUSE environments under our managed services, with SUSE Manager handling patching and compliance at scale.

04

Training & enablement

Official SUSE curricula and custom labs that certify your engineers on the exact platforms we build for you.

In production

A specialization, not a side offering

SUSE platforms are the core of our infrastructure practice — built, measured and answered for in production.

Talk to our SUSE team

Whether it's a Rancher platform design, a CentOS exit or a VMware alternative, you'll be talking to engineers who run SUSE in production — not a sales script.
