Case Study: China Meteorological Administration achieves greater security, scalability, and lower costs with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server from SUSE

China Meteorological Administration - Customer Case Study

China Meteorological Administration, a Chinese government agency responsible for nationwide meteorological services, was struggling with an aging communication system that had grown across three UNIX platforms and could no longer support rising demand, high availability, or efficient administration. The agency needed a more secure, scalable, and cost-effective infrastructure to deliver real-time weather data around the clock.

Suse implemented SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop on IBM eServer xSeries systems to modernize the environment and improve performance, stability, and security. The upgrade reduced user administration costs by 70%, decreased downtime, and improved response times, scalability, and access to timely weather information.
