GPU virtualization has become quite popular today, all vendors(AMD, Intel, Nvidia) have their own implementation, and most cloud providers had announced support solutions too.

This presentation will introduce some basic knowledge of GPU virtualization first. Then, we will have a full demo based on tumbleweed for all three vendors. Last, we will take a look of the user cases and related futu...

This will introduce the Elastic (formerly ELK) stack and how it can be used to collect and analyze log files. You will learn about the stack components (beats, logstash, elasticsearch, kibana), how they are installed and configured, how they work together, and how to use them. If time allows, we will look into containerization of this stack and how to use Salt for deployment and configuration....

The presentation introduces how standard networking works on Linux to fast-move on how modern solutions are taking advantage of kernel-by-pass technologies, hardware offloading and smart NICs programmability (e.g. eBPF / XDP / P4) to increase throughput and reduce latency of packets processing. The presentation introduces some of the design reasoning behind DPDK (and others), e.g. hugepages...

Network boot is commonly used for everything from booting thin clients to using IT automation for bare-metal provisioning. Unfortunately, most network boot infrastructure is based on outdated standards such as TFTP and PXE. This presents an issue when implementing a Zero Trust architecture, where security principles need to be implemented within the network perimeter.

This session introduces...

Small, networked devices, commonly named Internet of Things (IoT), lead the next revolution in information technology. This talk will present the software and tools available on openSUSE to participate in this revolution. We will especially look at the 'Arduino' IDE to program Arduino, ESP8266, Wemos, ESP32, and similar devices.

IT Infrastructures tend to be expensive, fragile, and to burn faster when they are not monitored. On this talk, we will present how to use Prometheus and Grafana as building blocks, and Uyuni as a way to automate its configuration.

Uyuni is an open-source solution for infrastructure management that serves as the upstream project for SUSE Manager. Prometheus enables whitebox monitoring on dy...

When talking dpdk/spdk, it usually comes to fancy hardware, which also means pricey, so it is a little bit difficult for developers have one at hand. However, this talk will share an experience to setup a develop platform with a decent budget. The platform is based on MacchiatoBin board plus a nvme ssd card, rootfs is based on openSUSE, and all related package are built from obs server, such as...

Have you ever tried to port code between git branches and found it's more complicated than simple cherry-picking? Or have you ever found yourself working concurrently on multiple features/fixes within the same git repository, and struggled to maintain clean topic branches for each strand of work?

This talk will introduce the following git tools and demonstrate how they can be used to help w...

With a typical workflow for adding computer applications, an administrator searches for an existing server compatible with the application, adds the new application and relies on the server administrator to maintain operating system updates, backups, and application updates. A stable, proven workflow, the server is nurtured until the hardware is no longer compatible.
