SUSECON 2024 will feature 6 different 2-hour hands on labs, providing an in depth experience with these technologies.

Lab Overviews

Hacking Kubernetes and protecting yourself against it

In this lab, participants play through a scenario of how they can exploit known vulnerabilities to gain access to a Kubernetes cluster. We then break out of the cluster itself and gain access to the host system. In the next step, we use NeuVector and secure the vulnerabilities without patching them.The participants will be fascinated by how easy it can be to penetrate an environment and their focus on a security solution for Kubernetes clusters will be sharpened.

Let's grab some knowledge and ride off into the sunset of seamless data management!

Hosting SAP workloads on SLE HA

In this hands-on lab you will learn how to configure the SUSE Linux Enterprise infrastructure components required to support the HA extension. Once the basics are configured the HA extension components required to provide a highly available platform to host business critical SAP workloads will be prepared, ready for use.

Project Trento deep dive

While Trento was initially purpose built to be cloud-native, it can also run on traditional environments so, in this hands-on session, we'll teach you how to get it up and running in the various available installation methods, and start monitoring SAP systems with ease.
