A cloud-native stack for full lifecycle management at the edge
The need for edge computing is growing. Gartner predicts that by 2025, more than 50% of enterprise-managed data will be created and processed outside of the data center or cloud. Similarly, The Linux Foundation found that Edge Computing will be 4 times larger than the cloud and will generate 75% of the data worldwide by 2025.
To prepare customers for the success of the next generation of embedded edge devices and enable them to scale, SUSE Edge 2.0 offers a full range of cloud-native edge management solutions with tightly integrated security across the entire stack, from apps to Kubernetes and more. operating systems. With various edge uses (general edge, telecom, and automotive) requiring additional capabilities, only SUSE provides a use case-based edge solution to meet the exact needs of the customer.
Additional capabilities of Edge 2.0 are:
Enhanced security for cloud-native workloads
Companies are increasingly faced with keeping costs down, improving execution time, and ensuring workloads are secure and scalable, while also making sure they aren't locked into a single vendor. With over 100 million downloads and tens of thousands of production deployments worldwide, Rancher maintains its position as one of the most widely adopted container management platforms in the industry.
New features with the upcoming Rancher 2.7 release will help customers better secure and manage Kubernetes workloads in bare metal, cloud and virtualized environments, including the addition of additional OS management functionality.
SUSE NeuVector provides the highest level of security and compliance in the industry without compromising application performance or hardware resources. With the upcoming release of SUSE NeuVector 5.1, customers will benefit from more efficient and powerful vulnerability scanning and admission controls across multiple clusters through centralized enterprise scanning, auto-scaling scanners, and support for the new security admission module. (PSA) of Kubernetes (1.25 ) standard. This release supports the Cilium Network Plugin, which will benefit Cilium users with advanced security capabilities, including zero-trust security automation and full layer 7 firewall protection such as WAF (Web Application Firewall), DLP (Data Leakage Prevention), DPI (Deep Packet Inspection), among others. This will also help the same security controls scale across clusters and clouds that may have different or multiple types of CNI plugins. Additionally, the open source build tools release for the Open Zero Trust project, based on NeuVector, is now available for community users to create and build their own versions of Open Zero Trust.
SUSE Customer Testimonial:
"In typical industrial shop floor environments, operational technologies to control automation systems are very difficult to integrate into IT systems. Using SLE Micro, K3s, Rancher and NeuVector in our industrial solutions bridges the gap between the For our customers, the above components enable enterprise IT-grade standardization, security, and compliance throughout the entire automation solution lifecycle," explained Dr. Stefan Odermatt, Vice President Research and Systems Development Senior at the Global Business Center at SICK AG.
