"Lots of companies are announcing AI this and AI that, but few of them offer more than new AI lipstick on an old pig when you look at them closely. Then, there's what SUSE is doing with its release of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 16 (SLES 16), available today. This new version is positioned as an AI-ready operating system tailored to the demands of today's hybrid cloud, data center, and edge computing environments."
"SLES 16's most significant AI component is a technology preview of a built-in model context protocol (MCP) host. MCP has become the agentic generation of AI-powered applications. Developed as an open standard by Anthropic in late 2024, MCP is built to seamlessly and securely connect large language models (LLMs) and AI agents to the vast, ever-changing landscape of real-world data, tools, and services."
