Ubuntu Core builds on the Ubuntu application ecosystem to create ultra-secure smart things. “Every connected device needs guaranteed platform security and an app store” said Mark Shuttleworth.
Some of you may have seen recently that we are trying to commoditize machine learning through our MLTK smart workflows. Here I’d like to outline another example of an MLTK smart workflow, designed to help improve the usability of the predictive capabilities in ITSI.
When we announced our license change for Elasticsearch and Kibana, moving the Apache 2.0-licensed source code to be dual licensed under both the Elastic License and SSPL, we also mentioned we would work closely with the community on a simplified and more permissive version of the Elastic License. I am happy to share the results with you. The Elastic License is already widely used.
