Linux made easy on RISC-V with Ubuntu

In the past decade, open-source and open standards have reshaped the world of technology and produced long-lasting results. With the open Instruction Set Architecture, the RISC-V consortium has extended open-source to the world of processor architecture. At Canonical, we believe in the power of open source to transform the world – that’s why we are committed to porting Ubuntu to RISC-V, combining the best open-source architecture with the best open-source operating system. Our mission? Further facilitating the adoption of novel computing architectures.

What are Webhooks and why do they matter to SCOM?

A Webhook is an API that delivers data from applications when an action or event occurs. When an event is triggered within the source site, it is seen by the Webhook, which collects the data and sends it to the desired application or URL in the form of an HTTP request. Webhooks are also instant, triggering the delivery of data in real-time, this makes them faster and easier to implement than other methods, like polling.
