    It will be effective for an organization that is planning to deploy the application on the cloud and as well as on-premise. Organizations planning to work on hybrid-based can go for it blindly If looking for security it's an ultimate solution, being it is hybrid-based security is well enhanced.

    It's great for provisioning any kind of virtual servers, but for now, we use it to provision only servers for Rancher managed Kubernetes clusters. But we are considering to provision also virtual servers for all kinds of needs on SUSE Harvester in the near future, as it's getting more and more mature with every release.

    We can deploy the application into windows and Linux virtual machines in the datacentre, Azure service. It provides the latest security, performance, and hybrid capabilities, which now include Azure Arc enablement and new management scenarios through the Azure portal. GPU enablement and maximizing performance of we can go virtual desktop infrastructure.

    We used ESXi for years and were happy with it. Then we implemented Rancher managed Kubernetes clusters with nodes provisioned on VMware ESXi. Later, when SUSE Harvester came out, we started to provision SUSE Rancher nodes on Harvester. Both VMware ESXi and SUSE Harvester are great products, and I think - we are keeping both, at least for now, when SUSE Harvester is a young project.
