11 SUSE Manager That's what you are here for, right?

12 SUSE Manager: Operating System Lifecycle Management Gain control Optimize operations Enable innovation 12

13 What's next?

14 SUSE Manager Major Release Roadmap SUSE Manager 1.7 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP2 SUSE Manager 2.1 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP3 Setup wizard Improved UI Action chaining Unattended bare-metal system provisioning Power management Compliance check based on CVE numbers SUSE Manager 3 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP1 Subscription management Topology Awareness Configuration management Monitoring Service Availability / Scalability SUSE Manager 4 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2 or SP3 Theme: Cloud / Virtualization / Containers

15 SUSE Manager Major Release Tentative Roadmap (TBD) SUSE Manager 1.7 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP2 SUSE Manager 2.1 Manager Rebase to SLES 11SP4 Oracle 12 as ext. DB SUSE Manager 3 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP1 Subscription management Topology Awareness Configuration management Monitoring Service Availability / Scalability SUSE Manager 4 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2 or SP3 Theme: Cloud / Virtualization / Containers

16 Feature updates for Manager 3 approximately every 3 months 16 More gatherer modules Deeper SaltStack integration Monitoring improvements Docker/Portus integration Full Machinery integration SaltStack managing SUSE OpenStack Cloud and SUSE Enterprise Storage

17 3 for 3: Main Goals for Manager 3 17 Subscription Management in complex environments (virtualized, public/private cloud, large/distributed organizations) Configuration Management with a focus on configuration compliance, using New external Monitoring component: loose integration of Icinga and 3rd party (Nagios-compatible) monitoring stacks with Manager core easy/automated setup of monitoring probes on newly deployed/managed systems

18 Subscription Management

19 Subscription Management 19 View/report your usage of SUSE subscriptions Assign subscriptions to groups of servers based on organizational setup, SLA requirements etc. etc. Identify over- or under-utilization Optimize your subscription usage

20 SUSE Manager as the Data Hub

21 Topology Management 21 Manage (or import) a topology tree with hardware and services and their dependencies Centrally provide and manage credentials for third party management APIs (VMware vcenter, SUSE Cloud, Public Cloud accounts) Manage and monitor Patch/Security Compliance and Subscription/Licence Compliance across physical, virtual, and Cloud deployments Integrate with your Monitoring solution

22 Ideas for SUSE Manager Integration... Directories (SLEPOS, 3rd Party) (LDAP, Active Directory) Users Systems Configuration Topology Configuration Management Databases (CMDB), e.g. ServiceNow Systems Inventory Configuration Topology Virtualization Public or Private Cloud (e.g. VMware vcenter, OpenStack, AWS) Systems Topology 22 Monitoring (e.g. Icinga, Nagios) Systems State Configuration sync SUSE Manager external Configuration Management Systems (Puppet, Chef,...) Act as an External Node Qualifier OS and Container Build Systems Provide templates and repositories Trigger rebuilds

23 Configuration Management

24

25 SaltStack... 25

26 Configuration Management 26 New infrastructure based on SaltStack Initial focus in Manager 3 is on tracking configuration drift (desired state vs. actual state) Versioned templates for individual systems or groups of systems

27 Why SaltStack? Combines imperative approach ( Do this NOW ) with declarative approach ( Make sure all my systems look like this ) in one tool 27 vs. Puppet (needs Ansible or mcollective as a companion ) Distributed architecture fits well into use cases in retail, hybrid cloud etc. Better scalability than Puppet Easy to extend (with many existing plugins for OpenStack, Docker, etc.) Used in SUSE Storage Large and rapidly growing community Written in Python fits well into current SUSE Manager client tools stack, allows for minimizing client footprint

30 What about Puppet? 30 Used in SUSE Manager vs. Used with SUSE Manager SaltStack will be the internal implementation used by SUSE Manager that admins can extend themselves Puppet is supported as part of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and can be used alongside SUSE Manager SUSE Manager as the configuration database (External Node Qualifier)

31 Long Term Vision: Service Templates 31 The vision is to ultimately be able to provide Service Templates for the Software Defined Datacenter that describe all the Linux images used in a setup that delivers a certain software service all the configuration (hardware and software, from network to credentials) SLAs (HA, sizing of hardware, performance scaling) Looking into TOSCA standard and Heat (OpenStack) and of course SaltStack

32 Monitoring

34 Scalability and Availability

35 Manager 3 scalability and high availability goals 35 Provide a t-shirt size approach (S/M/L/XL) to common tuning/configuration options Patch more systems faster Reduce memory and CPU usage per managed system Optimize for low network bandwidth/high network latency scenarios Documentation for Active-Active and Active-Passive clustered High Availability setups

36 SUSE Manager and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 36 Planning to offer a fully supported solution for patching Red Hat systems via SUSE Manager. Currently this needs a SUSE Expanded Support contract. With the new offering the customer will be able to keep the Red Hat Enterprise Linux support contract from Red Hat.
