Update on SuSE

Presented By: Michael Carrington

Including Rancher Labs acquisition (Kubernettes system) by SUSE Corp.and SuSE Storage update.

Rancher is a complete software stack for teams adopting containers.It addresses the operational and security challenges of managing multiple Kubernetes clusters, while providing DevOps teams with integrated tools for running containerized workloads.

There's only one version of Rancher; it's 100% free and open-source software.

A fundamental difference between Kubernetes and Docker is that Kubernetes is meant to run across a cluster while Docker runs on a single node. Kubernetes is more extensive than Docker Swarm and is meant to coordinate clusters of nodes at scale in production in an efficient manner.

Kubernetes contains powerful functionality for orchestrating applications and guaranteeing service availability. Rancher adds a complete UI and workload management layer to Kubernetes, that simplifies adoption and integrates CI/CD as well as key open source projects
