SUSE is a global leader in innovative, reliable and secure enterprise open source solutions, including SUSE Linux, SUSE Rancher, SUSE Edge and SUSE AI.
AI is moving from experimentation to operation. The big question is no longer what AI can do, it's who controls it. And here comes #SUSECON2027!
Drumroll please..... Introducing this yearโs theme: Sovereign AI for an Open World ๐
As organizations deploy AI agents across critical systems and sensitive data, sovereignty, security and choice have never mattered more. The decisions we make today will shape how we innovate, compete and maintain control in the years ahead.
Join us in Barcelona (February 15-17, 2027) to explore the four pillars of the agentic enterprise:
๐ฆ AI that delivers real business value
๐ฆ Sovereignty that keeps you in control of your data and infrastructure
๐ฆ Hybrid cloud that gives you the freedom to run anywhere
๐ฆ Security built for autonomous systems
At SUSE, we believe open source is the foundation for sovereign AI ๐ช
๐ฅ Early Bird registration is now open through 3 November. Read SUSE's CMO Margaret Dawson blog to find out more: https://t.co/wR4y5JRABa
๐ฅ This week, at KubeCon NA 2026, we are introducingย SUSEยฎ Linux Enterprise Server for @nvidiaยฎ, bridging high-velocity AI experimentation with enterprise-grade stability. Find out more: https://t.co/H333kWhQ0v

The Kubernetes challenge isn't deployment. It's everything that comes after.
As clusters grow and become business-critical, teams need more than management tools. They need support, lifecycle assurance, security, and operational consistency.

Huge news for the open source AI community! ๐ We are absolutely thrilled to see OpenShell join the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as a Sandbox project.
At SUSE, we believe the future of enterprise AI must be open, secure, and vendor-neutral. Building on our partnership with @NVIDIA and our shared commitment to the open source ecosystem, we are incredibly excited to see this project transition to community stewardship. This milestone means the wider community now has a shared role in building the critical runtime controls AI agents need.
We canโt wait to see how this community-led approach shapes the future of AI governance on Kubernetes ๐ณ Dive into the details and get involved:ย https://t.co/WSZw8E0Due

What will shape enterprise infrastructure in 2027? ๐
As we get ready for SUSECON 2027 in Barcelona, five trends are driving conversations across IT leadership teams:
โ AI moves from experimentation to production
โ Agentic AI introduces new security challenges
โ Digital sovereignty becomes a business priority
โ Cloud-native virtualization brings VMs and containers together
โ Open infrastructure connects cloud, data center and edge
The common thread? Organizations need infrastructure that delivers more control, flexibility and choice without adding complexity.
From Sovereign AI and security to Kubernetes, virtualization and hybrid IT, these are the topics that will define the next wave of innovation.
