Maintaining business focus in a cloud-native world with Managed Apps Apr 15 2020 4:00 pm UTC 60 mins
Nilay Patel - Product Manager & James Troup - Engineering DirectorEffectively operating cloud applications is an essential part of every organisation's cloud strategy. However, due to the increasing number of applications that are considered mission-critical, with differing technical requirements and the need for 24/7 up-time, organisations are finding this challenging. As a result, many organisations have started to outsource application management, with varying success levels - due to hybrid and multi-cloud strategies, it is difficult to find one managed service provider who specialises across cloud-architectures and different applications.
To address this, Canonical has launched Managed Apps - enabling enterprises to have their apps deployed and operated by Canonical as a fully managed service. At launch, Canonical will cover ten widely used cloud-native database and LMA (logging, monitoring and alerting) apps regardless of whether they run on Kubernetes, bare-metal, public or private clouds. Managed Apps frees DevOps teams to focus on the value their apps can deliver and away from time-consuming cloud-management tasks, at a predictable price.
Join Nilay Patel, Product Manager, and James Troup, Engineering Director, from Canonical in this webinar to learn how outsourcing cloud application management helps organisations lower costs, maintain business focus and get more transparency over their cloud. -

Edge AI in a 5G world Recorded: Feb 13 2020 27 mins
Eduardo Aguilar Pelaez - Ubuntu Product ManagerDeploying AI/ML solutions in latency-sensitive use cases requires a new solution architecture approach for many businesses.
Fast computational units (i.e. GPUs) and low-latency connections (i.e. 5G) allow for AI/ML models to be executed outside the sensors/actuators (e.g. cameras & robotic arms). This reduces costs through lower hardware complexity as well as compute resource sharing amongst the IoT fleet.
Strict AI responsiveness requirements that before required IoT AI model embedding can now be met with co-located GPUs (e.g. on the same factory building) as the sensors and actuators. An example of this is the robot ‘dummification’ trend that is currently being observed for factory robotics with a view to reducing robot unit costs and fleet management.
In this webinar we will explore some real-life scenarios in which GPUs and low-latency connectivity can unlock previously prohibitively expensive solutions now available for businesses to put in place and lead the 4th industrial revolution. -
