Understanding disaggregated GenAI model serving with llm-d

Apr 27, 2026 By Rob Gibbon In Canonical
llm-d is an open source solution for managing high-scale, high-performance Large Language Model (LLM) deployments. LLMs are at the heart of generative AI – so when you chat with ChatGPT or Gemini, you’re talking to an LLM. Simple LLM deployments – where an LLM is deployed to a single server – can suffer from latency issues, even with just one user.

From Jammy to Resolute: how Ubuntu's toolchains have evolved

Apr 22, 2026 By Samir Kamerkar In Canonical
The evolution of Ubuntu’s toolchains story goes beyond just providing up-to-date GCC, LLVM, and Python. It is also about opinionated openJDK variants, task-focused devpacks, FIPS compliant toolchains, and snaps, like the new.NET snap and Snapcraft plugin. These are enhancements that collapse half a day of setup into a single command or two, demonstrating what a frictionless developer experience means in practice for framework and application developers on Ubuntu.
