🤖 Find out what's new in the world of robotics with Canonical's roundup of exciting industry stories from the month of January!

Ubuntu Pro is Canonical's proposal for professional use. It comes with many features that makes it better supported, more secure and robust. This video will show you how to deploy an Ubuntu Pro server from the EC2 Console, enable AWS Systems Manager and run basic management task from the SSM console.

In this webinar, we review the storage challenges faced by Enterprises, and how Ceph can solve many of them. We discuss how a single Ceph cluster can address block, file and object storage needs, and compliment proprietary and public cloud solutions. We will also demonstrate some of the key features of Ceph that provide solutions for disaster recovery and compliance requirements.

The end-to-end monitoring of complex software systems is difficult, toil-intensive and error-prone. Developers, SREs and Platform teams must continuously invest effort in setting up and maintaining the monitoring setups that underpin the observability of their systems, or accept the risk of being unaware of ongoing issues and their impact on end users. Enter model-driven observability powered by Juju!

On average, 55% of IT budgets are spent on operations, keeping the lights on. Organisations are constantly trying to find the right balance between running efficient operations and exploring the new possibilities of digital transformation. And as more organisations move towards the cloud, many missed expectations occur. But how can an organisation build the right strategy to minimise the skill gap and spend less on operations while increasing efficiency and innovation?

This quarter we are focusing on open source private mobile networks.

In this video tutorial, you will go hands-on and build your own simulated bare metal Kubernetes cluster using just a single computer 💻 with Anton Smith, product manager for MAAS. Along the way, you’ll get to use and learn about some Linux networking, MAAS, LXD, Ceph, Juju and Kubernetes, and at the end deploy an application to your new K8s cluster ✨.

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.
