As an Android developer, you’ll almost always have access to a device. However, when handling hardware, the device that you actually need often happens to be already in use, set up incorrectly, stored in another lab, or simply waiting to be reset. That’s when Android development costs start to increase.

Today Canonical announced the release of Ubuntu 26.10, codenamed “Stonking Stingray,” available to download and install from ubuntu.com/download. Building on previous releases, Ubuntu 26.10 advances enterprise security features, completes the rollout of the Rust-based uutils coreutils, and strengthens integrations for user authentication using Microsoft Entra ID.

On 7 October 2026, Daniel Stenberg published a blog post describing a plan to release a new version of curl on 14 October 2026 in order to address 22 known security vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities have varying severities, with a single vulnerability assessed as high (CVE-2026-92392), while the others have a low or medium severity. The curl maintainer has coordinated with downstream vendors, including Ubuntu, under embargo and the vulnerabilities have been publicly disclosed on the planned date.
A few months ago, we introduced Myna, our project to bring private, local speech-to-text dictation to Ubuntu Desktop. Named after the speech-mimicking myna bird, Myna is an optional Ubuntu 26.10 feature that offers real-time visual feedback during speech recognition. Since then, Myna has grown into something you can install and use on your desktop. Today, we’re making it available as a technology preview to the wider Ubuntu community.

Ubuntu 26.10 “Stonking Stingray” arrives at a time when AI tools are accelerating vulnerability discovery. Patching faster is essential, but the resilience of the underlying operating system must also limit what an attacker can achieve before a fix is available.

Confidential computing is essential when an organization needs to process sensitive data on infrastructure where the operators should not have access to it.

How on-demand Android environments turn validation into a repeatable pipeline stage In the first article, we looked at automation: how Android environments can be created and managed programmatically. In the second, we looked at scaling: how shared infrastructure can make those environments available to more developers, tests, and workloads. This third article looks at the next step: integrating those environments directly into CI/CD.

Conversational AI with a chatbot is great for drafting emails or debugging code, but it’s less ideal for real-time application middleware. If you’re trying to inspect a financial transaction for potential fraud in the middle of a checkout loop, you don’t need an LLM to write you an essay about why a credit card transaction looks suspicious – you just need a probability score, and you need it as fast as possible.

Why scale AI, and how do you do it? From training and fine-tuning models to delivering AI-powered services to thousands of users, every step brings new infrastructure demands. How can organizations keep AI running 24/7, maintain performance, and control costs? That's where AI factories come in.

Updates are the easy part. Or are they? When thousands of connected devices are involved, organizations need to manage updates at scale, without disrupting critical operations. What to update, when to push it, and how to respond when things go wrong become key decisions.

Linux security is built for environments where resilience matters. From vulnerability management to long-term maintenance, securing open source at enterprise scale requires a robust approach across the software lifecycle. Robustness comes from how those practices work together and hold up over time.

AI now powers critical workloads across increasingly complex infrastructure. The question is, how do you keep the data used and generated by AI secure? For many, it’s a question of maximizing control over their own AI stacks, from training data and inference, to infrastructure operations and the underlying software.

Curation plays an important role in enterprise Linux security. Knowing what enters your environment, how it's maintained and what you can rely on over time helps manage open source securely at scale. Understanding these considerations helps inform a deliberate approach to Linux security.

Linux security benefits from transparency. Open source makes code available for scrutiny, allowing vulnerabilities to be identified, understood and addressed. At enterprise scale, that transparency plays an important role in how Linux security is managed.

Linux security is evolving rapidly, with critical implications for enterprise environments. As operational complexity grows, so do the nuances of securing and managing Linux and open source at scale.

Every space mission begins long before launch day. Ideas become spacecraft. Thousands of decisions are made before a single engine ignites. The European Space Agency (ESA) knows what that journey looks like. As the agency prepares to increase the missions it supports by 2030, it is laying the groundwork for decades of future exploration. Working with Canonical, ESA is building a common platform for mission operations based on open source. Kubernetes, Ceph, PostgreSQL, and Kafka form ESA’s infrastructure foundation.

From the smallest startups to the largest enterprises alike, organisations are using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to make the best, fastest, most informed decisions to overcome their biggest business challenges. But with AI/ML complexity spanning infrastructure, operations, resources, modelling and compliance and security, while constantly innovating, many organizations are left unsure how to capture their data and get started on delivering AI technologies and methodologies.

Traditional development methods do not scale into the IoT sphere. Strong inter-dependencies and blurred boundaries among components in the edge device stack result in fragmentation, slow updates, security issues, increased cost, and reduced reliability of platforms. This reality places a major strain on IoT players who need to contend with varying cycles and priorities in the development stack, limiting their flexibility to innovate and introduce changes into their products, both on the hardware and software sides.

Private cloud, public cloud, hybrid cloud, multi-cloud... the variety of locations, platforms and physical substrate you can start a cloud instance on is vast. Yet once you have selected an operating system which best supports your application stack, you should be able to use that operating system as an abstraction layer between different clouds.

Container technology has brought about a step-change in virtualisation technology. Organisations implementing containers see considerable opportunities to improve agility, efficiency, speed, and manageability within their IT environments. Containers promise to improve datacenter efficiency and performance without having to make additional investments in hardware or infrastructure. Traditional hypervisors provide the most common form of virtualisation, and virtual machines running on such hypervisors are pervasive in nearly every datacenter.

Big Software, IoT and Big Data are changing how organisations are architecting, deploying, and managing their infrastructure. Traditional models are being challenged and replaced by software solutions that are deployed across many environments and many servers. However, no matter what infrastructure you have, there are bare metal servers under it, somewhere.
