An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Provides BTRFS file system, which allows you to take snapshots
Reviewed on Jun 17, 2024
Review provided by PeerSpot
What is our primary use case?
I use openSUSE Leap for testing purposes. Before officially using any server in our office, we test it using the solution. My office usually uses production servers on the SUSE Linux enterprise version. Before that, I'll use those products in openSUSE Leap and get them tested.
What is most valuable?
The solution's most valuable feature is the BTRFS file system, which allows you to take snapshots. If I want to do some patching activity where I need a restore point, I can use this feature as a restore point to roll back.
What needs improvement?
Both openSUSE Leap and the SUSE Enterprise version use the same kernel. Suppose I have a lower environment where I can run openSUSE to test all my products. It would be helpful if I could easily switch to SUSE Linux Enterprise for production. It would be helpful if we could easily switch from openSUSE Leap for testing to SUSE Linux Enterprise for production.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using openSUSE Leap for the last three years.
How are customer service and support?
We post our questions and doubts on the portal and receive help within a day or two.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Neutral
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Red Hat is costlier than openSUSE Leap.
How was the initial setup?
The solution’s initial setup is straightforward.
On a scale from one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy, I rate the solution’s initial setup an eight out of ten.
What about the implementation team?
It took me almost 30 to 40 minutes to deploy the solution.
What was our ROI?
The solution has saved our organization time and cost.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
openSUSE Leap is an open-source solution that is free of cost.
What other advice do I have?
I only use the tool for testing purposes on my team, but multiple people use it. We don't make a team effort to install the solution. When it comes to maintenance, we ask our company to buy SUSE Linux Enterprise. My team consists of 13 people.
We are currently integrating the solution with Ansible to do some coding. Although not a full-fledged automation, we are integrating the solution with Ansible and executing a couple of playbooks connected to openSUSE Leap. I would recommend the solution to other users looking for an open-source solution.
Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Review from a verified AWS customer
My company has deployed a couple of production machines now using this AMI and everything works as expected, which for OpenSUSE means everything works with zero issues! Maybe we'll encounter one someday but for now it's an Admin's dream.
