Ubuntu AI Podcast | Launch of 2nd series

Season 2 of Ubuntu AI podcast is here! After a start with great guests and great feedback from our listeners, we are ready to kickstart a new series of episodes. We will continue talking about AI and open source, focusing mostly on the machine learning lifecycle, AI on public cloud, AI at the edge and the security angle of the AI projects. This time around, we will periodically invite contributors to open source projects from the AI space to join us.

Crafting new Linux schedulers with sched-ext, Rust and Ubuntu

In our ongoing exploration of Rust and Ubuntu, we delve into an experimental kernel project that leverages these technologies to create new schedulers for Linux. Playing around with CPU scheduling policies has always been a dream for many kernel hackers and OS enthusiasts. However, such material typically remains within the domain of a few core kernel developers with extensive years of experience.

What is a Kubernetes operator?

Operators take a real-world operations team’s knowledge, wisdom, and expertise, and codify it into a computer program that helps operating complex server applications like databases, messaging systems, or web applications. Operators provide implementations for operating applications that are testable and thus more reliable at runtime.

Preview Confidential AI with Ubuntu Confidential VMs and Nvidia H100 GPUs on Microsoft Azure

With Ubuntu confidential AI on Azure, businesses can undertake various tasks including ML training, inference, confidential multi-party data analytics, and federated learning with confidence. The effectiveness of AI models depends heavily on having access to large amounts of good quality data. While using publicly available datasets has its place, for tasks like medical diagnosis or financial risk assessment, we need access to private data during both training and inference.

.NET chiselled Ubuntu Containers | Canonical x Microsoft Interview

Dive deep into the collaboration between Canonical and Microsoft as we explore the latest innovation in the world of containers and.NET. In this interview, Richard Lander, Principal Program Manager for.NET at Microsoft, sits down with Cristovao Cordeiro, Engineering Manager for Containers at Canonical, to discuss the exciting developments post the launch of chiselled Ubuntu on Microsoft.NET with a focus on.NET 8, the latest release from Microsoft.

Unlocking software-defined vehicles: a deep dive into automotive software

We will address key topics such as the need for cybersecurity mandates, the evolving E/E architecture of SDVs, the importance of maintaining software integrity, meeting regulatory requirements, and delivering innovative features to enhance the user experience.

Edge AI: what, why and how with open source

Edge AI is transforming the way that devices interact with data centres, challenging organisations to stay up to speed with the latest innovations. From AI-powered healthcare instruments to autonomous vehicles, there are plenty of use cases that benefit from artificial intelligence on edge computing. This blog will dive into the topic, capturing key considerations when starting an edge AI project, main benefits, challenges and how open source fits into the picture.

5 Edge Computing Examples You Should Know

In the fast-paced world of technology, innovation is the key to staying ahead of the curve. As businesses strive for efficiency, speed, and real-time data processing, the spotlight is increasingly turning towards edge computing. Edge computing represents a paradigm shift in the way data is processed and analysed. Unlike traditional cloud computing, which centralises data processing in distant data centres, edge computing brings the processing power closer to the source of data.
