The tech stack just got thrown in the air — and SUSECON 2026 is ground zero for what comes next.
On Day 3 of our live coverage from SUSECON 2026, Alan Shimel and Mike Vizard are joined by Stephen Dickens of HyperFrame Research and Christine Buccio of SUSE to break down the biggest storylines of the week: sovereign AI, the new partner ecosystem, the VMware/Broadcom fallout, and the uncomfortable truth facing every platform engineer, SRE, and VMware admin on the floor.
SUSE CTO Dr. Thomas Di Giacomo kicked the day off with a blunt message: IT leaders are "one executive order away from becoming a hostage." Our gang unpacks what that means for infrastructure sovereignty, AI factories, open source, and the chaos of trying to operationalize AI in production.
