Presentations
This talk will discuss the current challenges around AI. In the second half it covers the new innovative local and open source AI features that the Nextcloud community is building. At the end the talk looks into the new Ethical AI framework and what it means for existing SaaS AI solutions and the open source local alternatives.
What the heck is Godot? Like games? Think of making them? Then this is the game engine and development platform for you. Although newer than Unity and Unreal, it is much more enjoyable to work with and improving rapidly. Most importantly it is *free* not just as in no money, but with all the freedoms of true Open Source. Avoid executives making painful decisions and costing you money (even for demos). Find out how easy it is to get started, how fun it can be to work with, and how powerful it can be. (Plus find out how Unity is like Dungeons and Dragons, in the bad way)
Ever wonder what that fuss is all about! Is this just a new technology that will die along the thousands of JavaScript libraries that were supposed to change the way we code? Is Kubernetes really a game changer? Even if it was, do you or your project really need a container orchestration system with its clusters, controllers, pods and all those new moving pieces? All your questions will be answered in this talk! We will demystify this together. In the end, you’ll have a better understanding of the platform & its quirks, including the pros and cons, and how to get started.
New technology such as Artificial Intelligence promises to bring us remarkable advancements to society and solve pressing problems. However, as we have seen in recent years, the technologies also have a large potential for unintended consequences that can harm individuals and society as a whole. Daphne, TEDx speaker who wears two hats as the leader of the AI team at Nextcloud and academic researcher in this field, will share her experience on how to best navigate this new era of innovation while staying true to our core principles and values.
OpenTelemetry is the most active CNCF project after Kubernetes and is progressing at an immense pace. The core project is expanding beyond the “three pillars” into new signals, and beyond backend into client side telemetry and real user monitoring, eBPF, and much more. It can be difficult to keep track of all these updates.
If you liked Horovits’s KubeCon talk last year on OpenTelemetry, you won’t want to miss this sequel. In this talk Horovits will go over some of the notable project updates you should keep an eye on, as well as useful guidance on how to get started in a pragmatic fashion.
We'll explore the past, present, and future direction of the Linux desktop ecosystem, covering technologies such as OSTree, Flatpak, and platform libraries (such as libadwaita.) The primary focus of this talk will be the changing model of how Linux native applications are developed, distributed, and consumed. We'll also touch on other improvements to the desktop experience, and share our view for the future.
Kubernetes is a transformative tool, but its Lego-brick approach and vast tooling landscape bring massive complexity. This hands-on workshop will guide you through the golden path of running applications on Kubernetes and then explore the complexities needed to productionalize those workloads. You’ll learn not only what Kubernetes is, but also when it’s appropriate, and when it can be a velocity-destroying distraction for your team.
FreeBSD is a free Unix-like operating system descended from Research Unix via the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD), also known as “Berkeley Unix.” It’s known for its reliability, stability, and advanced networking and performance. Join us for a full-day workshop to teach you how to install FreeBSD and the ports and packages necessary to get you up and running.
Join us for an in-depth, live workshop designed to give DevOps and IT teams the hands-on skills they need to deploy and manage Kubernetes everywhere with SUSE Rancher. During this hands-on workshop, SUSE will provide an introduction to Rancher, Docker, and Kubernetes and then walk through the steps for deploying a Kubernetes cluster with Rancher. Attendees should have a basic working knowledge of Docker.
