Leveraging open source with Ubuntu Pro on Azure: Economics, Velocity & Security

Every day, organizations of all kinds and sizes choose to harness open source innovation as part of their development and operations. Many have embraced Linux and are now adopting open source beyond the core platform, as evidenced by the widespread adoption of ecosystems like Python, Node.js and Go, and workloads like Kafka, Redis and Elasticsearch. From retailers to financial services enterprises running on Microsoft Azure, Ubuntu has rapidly become a preferred platform to harness that innovation. But how can organizations balance the fast pace of community-driven open source innovation with their own imperatives of security, compliance and support? And what does an open source security strategy mean for enterprise environments? In this webinar, you’ll learn how Microsoft and Canonical are partnering to ensure every organization can achieve more through open source software in a trusted way — with no compromises on security and support. In addition to covering features of Ubuntu Pro for Azure such as Livepatch, Extended Security Maintenance and FIPS/Common Criteria, we’ll share our roadmap and joint vision for open source security and compliance in the cloud.
