OpenStack vs Kubernetes

Building upon years of contributions from the wider Linux community, Ubuntu is the most widely used OS among professional developers and the preferred open-source enabler for thousands of development teams.

But Linux on devices must be treated differently than on servers to reduce the cost of maintenance and the risk of failure in the field. To respond to this need, Canonical developed Ubuntu Core, an Ubuntu flavour optimised for embedded devices.

Ubuntu Core is also open source, binary-compatible and backed by a strong developer community but it is specifically designed for the world of IoT.  It is optimised for security and reliable OTA updates, with its entire ecosystem engineered to solve the major bottlenecks behind shipping embedded Linux devices in production.
In this webinar, we will discuss:

- The challenges of managing IoT and edge devices at scale
- The key security pillars before going to production with embedded Linux
- Why Ubuntu Core is the new standard for the embedded world

Hardening a system is synonymous with reducing its attack surface: remove unnecessary software packages, lock down default values to the tightest possible settings and configure the system to only run what you explicitly require. Why would you want to harden your infrastructure and systems to start with? Isn’t Linux secure enough already? 

A fully secure system is made up of many layers, from the hardware to the operating system and the application servers running your mission-critical code. Because system hardening is so important to so many organisations, industry standards have been developed to gather the best practices from across the world and formulate a common approach. The Center for Internet Security (CIS) publishes hardening benchmarks for many common software applications and operating systems, including Ubuntu and Kubernetes.

In this webinar we will cover:

Hardening from OS to the application layer  
Ubuntu Security Guide (USG) for automated remediation and auditing
How to harden Kubernetes running on Ubuntu
Charmed Kubernetes: the fully-automated multi-cloud distribution
K8s Security: CIS, AppArmor, Vault integration, and OpenSCAP scanning


Underpinning any robust deployment is Ubuntu Pro’s 10-year security maintenance guarantee. Ubuntu Pro also provides the USG tool to automate hardening and auditing for profiles such as the CIS benchmarks, or DISA-STIG for missions deployed within US DoD networks.

Avoid Kubernetes security risks with hardening best practices

High-performance AI can only be achieved when hardware and software work together. An end-to-end MLOps solution working on hardware designed for AI is crucial for enterprises wanting to move their AI out of their labs and scale it to production. Did you know that Charmed Kubeflow on NVIDIA hardware enables you to take AI models from concept to production rapidly, robustly and reliably? 


Although the platform can be used in any sector, this webinar will focus on life sciences. While a stack like this is suitable for various use cases across the life sciences vertical, we specifically focus on image analysis, a key activity in the drug discovery pipeline. Different stages, such as monitoring disease progression or structure determination of biological macromolecules, benefit from advances in deep learning which let you analyse large volumes of data. 


During the webinar, NVIDIA and Canonical’s experts will cover:
- NVIDIA DGX, networking, and the requisite hardware for AI training
- Image analysis using deep learning for drug discovery
- Challenges to performing image analysis
- NVIDIA SDKs and AI frameworks via NGC
- From experimentation to production: the challenge to maintain and monitor various models 
- How to optimise operations for AI at scale
- Solutions for deep learning: hardware and software combined together

How Canonical and NVIDIA can help operationalise your AI models quickly

Lower your overhead with an open-source framework!

A software operator encapsulates the knowledge and expertise of a real-world operations team and codifies it into a dedicated piece of software. Software operators help human operators and administrators run their applications efficiently and effectively. They are the obvious solution for going Low-Ops when operating applications. Low-Ops refers to the approach of automating the configuration and operation wherever applicable to reduce tasks to the minimum.

With Juju and the Charmed Operator framework, Canonical provides a fully open-sourced solution for implementing and running software operators. And there is a lot more than just the software: there is documentation as well as free training, guidelines and references for creating software operators. 

Our secret weapon for Low-Ops: Model-driven operations

Operating solutions today are about integrating and managing applications. Juju uses models to form compositions of these applications. Models in Juju integrate applications into a logical unit. This approach solves several challenges, such as consistent access restrictions, sharing common operational data, or reusing deployment configurations. 

Join the Webinar to learn about:

The open-source approach to software operators with Juju and the Charmed Operator Framework
Available guidance and resources
The idea of model-driven operations
How to leverage the Low-Ops approach for your solution

Recent changes at VMware have compelled existing customers to consider VMware alternatives. Many have turned their eyes to open source. However, migrating from VMware is not an easy task, and it will involve some changes in how you’re managing your infrastructure.

You might’ve joined our previous webinar where we talked about open-source solutions as an alternative to VMware software. In this follow-up webinar, we will go into more depth. We will compare the features and discuss the differences between VMware and Ubuntu-based infrastructure, and then dive into a few example migration scenarios. The migration process and tooling are also very dependent on the kind of workloads you are running, as well as what kind of platform you want to migrate to. We will examine the migration of larger scale VMWare to OpenStack, as well as smaller scale VMware to our Micro cloud offering.

We will also discuss potential issues that can occur during migration due to the differences in the features and architecture, and how to overcome them. You can also utilise the migration as an opportunity to modernise your workloads, and ensure you are not dragging your outdated legacy systems into the future along with the high costs of maintaining them. We will briefly touch upon this topic as well.

In this session, we will cover:
1) What are the components of Ubuntu-based infrastructure
2) VMware vs Ubuntu: a feature comparison 
3) How to ensure a successful migration

How to migrate from VMware to Ubuntu-based infrastructure?

US government agencies and organizations in government-regulated industries face a huge challenge in complying with regulations and standards in order to run their workloads. AWS GovCloud and Ubuntu make it much easier to deploy missions securely in the cloud whilst remaining compatible with compliance requirements.

At Canonical we have developed the Ubuntu Security Guide (USG), a compliance as code tool that helps you automate the process of auditing your Ubuntu VMs against the relevant DISA STIG or CIS profile and generate shell scripts to remediate any potential nonconformities. 

In this webinar we will look at what additional security measures Ubuntu Pro offers, and some of the extensive range of security features provided by AWS GovCloud for government and DoD agencies and contractors. We will show how to harden and audit your Ubuntu operating system for DISA-STIG or CIS requirements, and dive into how to use AWS security services like Amazon Inspector and Amazon GuardDuty.

Raising the bar on cybersecurity with Ubuntu for AWS GovCloud

Machine learning(ML) is a branch of artificial intelligence that focuses on the development of algorithms that have the ability to learn by using data. While ML gets a lot of attention, the actual implementation of ML models (their deployment and maintenance) requires much more than programming skills.

Enter MLOps

MLOps is the short term for machine learning operations. MLOps represents a set of practices that aim to simplify workflow processes and automate machine learning and deep learning deployments. For example, in the case of a smart city, a good use case is a model that automatically sends alerts when there are accidents. It constantly retrains, based on new data regarding the traffic and it behaves differently during bank holidays or during different seasons.

 MLOp accomplishes the deployment and maintenance of models reliably and efficiently for production, at a large scale. In other words, MLOps enables you to ship models faster, ensuring portability and reproducibility. 

Navigating the landscape of MLOps solutions can be daunting. There is no one size fits. If you are looking to understand current MLOps trends, join our webinar to find out how to choose the right solution and learn about Charmed Kubeflow. 

During the webinar, you will learn from Canonical’s AI experts, Maciej Mazur, Principal AI/ML Engineer, and Andreea Munteanu, MLOps Product Manager based on real customer questions and requests collected by Adrian Matei, Sales Representative.

In 22.04, Canonical announced a beta version of the Ubuntu kernel with the PREEMPT_RT patchset integrated. The new real-time kernel serves extreme latency-dependent use cases and provides deterministic response times to service events. By meeting stringent preemption specifications, real-time is suitable across a broad range of verticals, from telco applications to dedicated devices in industrial automation and robotics.

But does a real-time kernel necessarily result in optimized performance? And what would be the consequences of missing a deadline? If you are a Linux kernel enthusiast or just getting started with real-time systems and want to learn more about PREEMPT_RT, this webinar is for you.

This webinar will provide a broad overview of the target use cases and real-time applications. Starting with the building blocks, we will learn:

- What is a real-time system?
- What are the use cases of real-time across market segments?
- What is the role of the PREEMPT_RT patchset?
- How would one know if a low-latency kernel is acceptable over PREEMPT_RT?

And much more. Having set the stage and the necessary context in mind, we will then deep-dive into the Linux kernel build with the out-of-tree PREEMPT_RT patch applied.

An Introduction to real-time Linux

Join this webinar and start 2023 with a strong security posture!

You’ve probably heard of Linux, but maybe you’re not quite sure what it is, what you can do with it, and, more importantly, whether you can trust it to run your next project.

In our first webinar of the new year, Canonical’s Ijlal Loutfi and Henry Coggill will discuss the security of Linux and Ubuntu. We’ll start with the basics of why the operating system is important and how it underpins the integrity of any applications running on top. We will provide background information as to what Linux is, for those who might be unfamiliar with its history, and discuss how open-source software is developed and bundled into distributions.

We will discuss how the open source ecosystem deals with security vulnerabilities, how they are discovered and fixed, and how end users react to this perpetual dance. Then we will go deeper into the range of security technology built into Ubuntu and what this means for protection against unknown threats. Finally, we will explore how Canonical’s enterprise-grade support delivers a comprehensive platform for secure open-source adoption.

Agenda
 - Why the operating system underpins the security of any application
 - What a Linux distribution is, and what Ubuntu is

Protect your sensitive data and enable new business models

Do you get the feeling that your business is not truly utilising the data it has, and that it is losing valuable business insights and revenue-generating opportunities because of that? 
You’re not alone. A big part of business data is security-sensitive and/or regulated. Running naive analytics on it, sharing it with third parties,  or just processing it in the cloud is bound to put its confidentiality and integrity at risk. So you just don’t do it.
In this webinar, we will introduce you to confidential computing, a privacy-enhancing technology which allows you to resolve the tension between computation and privacy. Confidential computing improves data protection at run time in the public cloud, even against its shared privileged system software. It helps you unlock value from vast troves of data and build innovative business models. 
To learn more about how your business can leverage confidential computing, join us in this webinar, where Ijlal Loutfi and Srikrishna ‘Kris’ Sharma will discuss the following: 
- Why run-time security is important
- Introduction to confidential computing
- The new confidential public cloud
- Confidential collaborative computing uses cases within financial services:
       * Credit scoring

Is your organisation planning to adopt open source but finding the security challenges associated with it daunting? It’s no secret that developers prefer to use open-source software in their projects.  However, the Log4Shell attack or the more recent PyPl crypto miner packages have taught us that there are questions around how it should be managed.

At Canonical we have been dealing with open source security issues since the very first release of Ubuntu and way before the topic became number 1 on every CISO priority list. Security is not only a key element of our commercial offering but also a design imperative for all of our products to make sure they are secure on their own - and even more secure when they’re working together.

Join this webinar to discover how you can manage these challenges and lay the software foundation of a successful cybersecurity program.

During the webinar we will discuss:
 - The security challenges facing companies that would like to adopt open source software
 - Why companies need to adopt a defence in depth approach to secure their infrastructure
