Is configuration drift silently killing your stability? Join us for the next Red Hat User Group (RHUG) event in Washington D.C. and discover the future of IT infrastructure management with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 10 Image Mode.
This isn't just another operating system update—it's a new paradigm. You’ll learn how to treat your entire OS as a versioned, container-native artifact, bringing the speed and control of DevOps to your foundational layer.
Event Highlights:
* Deep Dive: Deploying and maintaining a truly immutable, compliant operating system.
* Expert Insight: How to use familiar container-native tools to build bootable RHEL images.
* Networking: Connect with peers, Linux administrators, security engineers, and infrastructure architects.
Don't miss this opportunity to transform your IT services.
Date: Thursday, March 26, 2026
Time: 12:00 PM – 3:00 PM EST
Location: Red Hat Tysons Corner, McLean, VA
Secure your spot today and get ready to eliminate operational "noise" for good.
We look forward to seeing you there!

Hacking the Stack: Using OpenSearch Dashboards as an Application Framework
**Agenda:**
* 6-6:30 pm: Networking and food/drinks
* 6:30-7:15 pm: Announcements and presentation
* 7:15 pm-7:30 pm: Q&A and close-out
**Hacking the Stack: Using OpenSearch Dashboards as an Application Framework**
Most developers treat OpenSearch Dashboards (OSD) strictly as a visualization layer—a place for charts and graphs. They are missing the bigger picture. OSD is a powerful, untapped environment for full-stack application development. In this session, we peel back the architecture of **an enterprise-grade risk, compliance, and security platform built entirely *on top of* OSD**. We moved beyond simple plugins and pushed OSD to its limits to create a seamless, interactive application experience.
Join us for a deep dive into the engineering reality of the OpenSearch stack, including:
* **The Analysis:** Why the OpenSearch stack beat out the competition.
* **The Build,** **Beyond Visualization:** How to implement custom React components to build complex workflows and interactive UIs within OSD.
* **The Integrations:** Integrating Wazuh for agent management and ingesting data at scale.
* **The “Gotchas”:** Honest, real-world lessons on data handling, state management, and what to look out for.
**If you are ready to push your plugins from “reporting tools” to “robust software,” do not miss this session!**
