I am currently using SUSE Linux Enterprise 15.2 with a ppc64le (PowerPC 64-bit Little Endian) system architecture. While attempting to install Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDATP), I encountered the following error:

No provider of 'mdatp' found.

Could you please confirm if MDATP supports the ppc64le architecture? If not, are there any plans to extend support for this architecture in the future?

    Hi @chirag darji

    Thank you for your question.

    At this time, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (formerly MDATP) does not support the ppc64le architecture, including for SUSE Linux Enterprise or any other Linux distribution.

    Currently Supported Architectures:

    Microsoft Defender for Endpoint on Linux supports the following:

    x86_64 (64-bit Intel/AMD)

    Select ARM64 support (for some distros as of recent updates)

    You can confirm this in the official documentation here:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-endpoint/mde-linux-prerequisites
