SUSE Linux Enterprise Server

Overview

SLES is SUSE's enterprise server operating system. It runs on physical servers, virtual machines, public clouds, and private infrastructure.

Private SLES services can use one identity-aware gateway without a separate public exposure model for every application.

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server supplies the runtime or deployment environment. Pomerium runs in that environment and supplies the identity-aware access point for selected services.

Prerequisites

• A supported Linux host that can accept the user-facing route and reach the private upstream service.
• DNS, TLS, identity-provider configuration, protected secrets, and durable storage where the selected design requires it.

How it works

Run Pomerium Core on a supported Linux host in the environment. Install the official package, standalone binary, or container. Configure DNS, TLS, identity, route policy, storage, and replicas for the selected design.

Use the official standalone Pomerium Linux binary or official container. Define process supervision, DNS, TLS, identity, route policy, secrets, and updates. Use the standalone binary or container instructions for this distribution.

Check service health, DNS, TLS, required storage and replicas, and upstream reachability. Confirm that a direct public route cannot bypass Pomerium.

Example

A private administration application runs on SLES. Pomerium runs on a connected SLES gateway from the official Linux binary and forwards approved requests.

Considerations

• Pomerium does not provide a first-party Zypper package workflow.
