New Webinar Available
On-Demand
Have you ever signed up for a live webinar which is a few months away, only to then have something come up that prevents you from attending? Most if not all of us have had this disappointing experience. This is why we’ve changed our webinar series to play on an on-demand basis.
So, our webinar, “Security Updates of Shared Libraries Without Restarts with KernelCare+” is now available on-demand. The QA session is still interactive on the webinar interface, however. You can ask your questions right on the webinar page and the KernelCare team will answer you directly.
