Ubuntu 18.04 Focuses On Security and AI Improvements (sdtimes.com)
Canonical has announced the release of its open-source Linux operating system, Ubuntu 18.04, which features security, multi-cloud, containers, and AI improvements. From a report: "Multi-cloud operations are the new normal," said Mark Shuttleworth, CEO of Canonical and founder of Ubuntu, in a statement. "Boot-time and performance-optimized images of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on every major public cloud make it the fastest and most efficient OS for cloud computing, especially for storage and compute intensive tasks like machine learning." On-premises and on-cloud AI development within Ubuntu will be improved by the integration of Kubeflow and a range of CI/CD tools into Canonical Kubernetes. Kubeflow is a machine learning library built on Kubernetes.
"Multi-cloud operations are the new normal"... What?
I can explain.
He means that to best leverage new trends in AI and blockchain technologies, customers no longer want to be constrained to just one cloud in today's increasingly global competitive landscape. This is cloud computing brought into the modern era, with full-on support for more rapid paradigm shifts and enhanced disruptive innovation. This new release will allow alignment of enterprise level strategies with synergistic goals to increase customer mind share and build viral growth.
It is only by using this multi cloud technology that modern consumer facing agile entities can grow their business and re-imagine a future in which outside the box thinking becomes the new normal. Ubuntu 18.04 supports all these emerging technological trends, and more.
This is basic, mission critical process, and I am astonished that anyone on a supposed "tech site" like this would be unaware. Shame on you for not keeping up with broad trends in innovation and holistic consumer enablement.
