DH2i has announced its participation in SUSECON 2025, taking place March 10-14 in Orlando, Florida. DH2i, alongside technology leaders from Microsoft and SUSE, will present two sessions focused on building secure, resilient data platforms. The first, an in-person breakout session at the conference, will showcase how to optimize SQL Server 2025 and SUSE Rancher to create a unified, scalable data platform across containers, physical, and virtual machines (VMs) with DH2i’s DxEnterprise. The second, a pre-recorded session made available at the conclusion of the conference, will provide a step-by-step guide to deploying highly available AI applications using SUSE AI & BCI, Microsoft SQL Server, and DH2i DxEnterprise.
In-Person Breakout Session:
- Date/Time: Thursday, March 13th, 11:00 am – 11:50 am ET
- Presenters:
- OJ Ngo, CTO and Co-Founder, DH2i
- Abduallah Mamun, Senior Product Manager | Azure Data, Microsoft
- Terry L. Smith Director, Global Alliances Solutions, Suse
- Session Title: “Harnessing SQL Server 2025 and SUSE Rancher for a Unified Data Platform Across Containers, Physical, and Virtual Machines with DH2i’s DxOperator”
- Abstract: Build a data environment that is cross-platform, spanning across virtual machines, physical machines, and containers in different environments. In this session, we will deploy SQL Server containers across Azure Kubernetes Service and other Kubernetes platforms using the DH2i Operator, managing the entire deployment with SUSE’s Rancher. With the release of SQL Server 2025, we will also showcase the vector search capability, enabling semantic search natively for your databases. If you are a database developer, engineer, or administrator looking to modernize your data estate, this session is for you. We will highlight new developer features in SQL Server 2025, making it easier to work with JSON, Parquet, and traditional relational data within the same environment. Additionally, we will cover how SUSE Rancher can be used to manage and administer Kubernetes clusters, ensuring efficient and streamlined operations in an all-Kubernetes environment. Join us to discover best practices, tips, and tools for optimizing your SQL Server container deployments in a hybrid cloud landscape.
Pre-Recorded Session (Viewable after SUSECON):
- Presenters:
- OJ Ngo, CTO and Co-Founder, DH2i
- Amit Khandelwal, Principal Product Manager | Data Platform – SQL Server, Microsoft
- Terry L. Smith Director, Global Alliances Solutions, Suse
- Session Title: “How to Build a Secure and Resilient Production Environment for Your AI Applications”
- Abstract: In today’s AI-driven world, swift and seamless transitions from development to enterprise deployment are essential, along with reliable high availability (HA) for databases supporting AI apps. In this demo-packed session, Ngo, Khandelwal, and Smith will guide IT teams step-by-step in building a comprehensive solution architecture for deploying enterprise AI at scale. They will use SUSE AI & Base Container Image (BCI) for a secure, feature-rich foundation, Microsoft SQL Server as a flexible and secure database backbone, and DH2i DxEnterprise for infrastructure-agnostic HA/DR. Attendees will leave with an actionable framework for building highly available, production AI apps on the SUSE platform using Microsoft SQL Server and DH2i, and an understanding of the benefits of SUSE tools like Rancher, NeuVector, and StackState.
SUSECON, taking place from March 10-14 in Orlando, promises to be a must-attend event for IT professionals, developers, and business leaders eager to explore the latest advancements in open-source solutions. With a focus on innovation, collaboration, and the future of enterprise technology, the conference will feature a dynamic lineup of keynote speakers, hands-on workshops, and engaging breakout sessions. Attendees will gain insights into topics such as cloud-native transformation, edge computing, and containerization while networking with industry leaders and peers.
