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. This can be because of lack of memory-bandwidth on the server, or because of KV cache pressure on system memory.

Today Canonical announced the release of Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, codenamed “Resolute Raccoon,” available to download and install from ubuntu.com/download. Resolute Raccoon builds on the resilience-focused improvements introduced in interim releases, with TPM-backed full-disk encryption, improved support for application permission prompting, Livepatch updates for Arm– based servers, and Rust-based utilities for enhanced memory safety.

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.

The “hybrid fleet” is today’s reality: organizations diversify operating systems while Microsoft Active Directory (AD) remains the dominant identity “source of truth.” IT administrators must ensure Linux machines, like Ubuntu desktops and servers, behave as first-class citizens in this environment.

The way enterprises are thinking about their infrastructure has changed. Digital sovereignty of all kinds – data sovereignty, operational sovereignty, and software sovereignty – have begun to dominate the infrastructure discussion. Today, these abstract terms have become practical concerns for platform teams.

30 years after its introduction, Secure Shell (SSH) remains the ubiquitous gateway for administration, making it a primary target for brute force attacks and lateral movement within enterprise environments. For system administrators and security architects operating under the weight of regulatory frameworks like SOC2, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS, default SSH configurations are an “open door” that represents an unacceptable risk.

In the modern DevSecOps world, CISOs are constantly looking for signals in the noise, and the outputs of security scanners often carry a lot of weight. A security scan that returns a “zero CVE” report often unlocks promotion to production; a single red flag can block a release. This binary view of security has birthed two diametrically opposed philosophies. On one side, we have the long-term support (LTS) approach: stay on a battle-tested version and backport specific security fixes.

In September 2025, dozens of popular JavaScript packages, like chalk and debug, were compromised on the npm registry. These packages are so ubiquitous they end up in everything: front-end apps, back-end microservices, and CI tooling. Developers didn’t do anything wrong, they just ran the same command they always do: npm install chalk. But then the malware arrived silently. This wasn’t a bug in an operating system. It wasn’t a virus on someone’s laptop.

Today, we’re excited to introduce the beta release of MicroCloud Cluster Manager, a new way to discover, organize, and operate your MicroCloud environments from a single, unified interface. MicroCloud is an open source cloud platform that makes it simple to create lightweight, resilient clusters anywhere. As teams scale from one cluster to many, visibility and coordination quickly become essential. Cluster Manager is built to solve exactly that.

Join us on our deep dive into Chisel: the tool that brings enterprise-grade traceability to ultra-minimal container images. In this video, we explain why Chisel was created, and how it helps address security challenges in modern container images. We cover why container images often include unnecessary software and dependencies, why building minimal distroless containers can be difficult, and how missing metadata can lead to false confidence in vulnerability scans.

In this video, we explain the Open Container Initiative (OCI) and how open, vendor-neutral standards make containers portable and interoperable across platforms, tools, and environments. We cover what OCI is, why OCI compliance matters, and how OCI defines the core building blocks of the container ecosystem: container images, runtimes, and distribution.

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.
