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 year’s theme: Sovereign AI for an Open World 🌏
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:
🦎 AI that delivers real business value
🦎 Sovereignty that keeps you in control of your data and infrastructure
🦎 Hybrid cloud that gives you the freedom to run anywhere
🦎 Security built for autonomous systems
At SUSE, we believe open source is the foundation for sovereign AI 💪

What happens when AI projects are stitched together one piece at a time? Too often, complexity takes on a life of its own 🧟♂️
The real challenge isn't building AI. It's keeping it manageable, scalable and under control as it grows.

Achieving true operational excellence with SAP S/4HANA demands more than just migration - it requires an infrastructure designed to eliminate technical risk, streamline operations, and drive down Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
In our latest video, we break down how decades of co-engineering have been consolidated into five essential pillars for IT leaders and solution architects navigating S/4HANA:
⚙️ Automation: Fast, certified, and repeatable deployments that remove human error.
🛡️ Resilience: Built-in high availability and automated failovers to eliminate unplanned downtime.
🔒 Security: OS-level hardening and integrated compliance profiles for mission-critical workloads.
📊 Insight: Single-pane-of-glass management with Trento to monitor best-practice deviations.
🐧 Standardization: Centralized management across mixed Linux distros via SUSE Multi-Linux Manager.
