Lightbulb How many people are using openSUSE on the server? Desktop?
I am wondering, how many people use openSUSE on a Server(s), just Desktop(s) or Server(s) and Desktop(s).

Workstations, Netbooks, etc. should count as Desktop.

Feel free to detail what kind of server you are running (web, file, etc.), if you want.

Hundreds of servers (and then a few hundred more virtualized), some workstations.

What are they used for (if I may ask)? Datafarm? Webservers? File/Identity servers?

Various purposes including web services, development (Linux and Java software development), file servers, media transcoding and broadcasting (these require a lot of juice) and various other tasks.

Are these servers using openSUSE, SLES or a mixture?

I know there is very little difference between openSUSE and SLE*, but I want to try and focus on the community-backed openSUSE for this poll.

I use openSUSE as a desktop. Since I only have one computer, openSUSE is all I use. I haven't owned Windows in years.
