Canonical creates base images of Ubuntu that are optimized for AMD’s adaptive computing platforms such as Kria, Versal, and Zynq, so that AMD’s customers can use those as a starting point for product production deployments.  

This webinar will cover the value proposition of using these base Ubuntu images for your development processes, and then walk you through the steps of getting from there to a fully customized and optimized production solution for your SOM-based or custom chip-down designs using AMD AECG chip sets.

From prototype to production with Ubuntu on AMD adaptive computing solutions

OpenStack Reimagined: Building a Cloud-Native Infrastructure

Air-gapped or offline networks are an increasingly common security requirement for deployments in regulated or federal environments and sovereign clouds. Today’s hyper-connected infrastructure often makes assumptions about remote systems being online and available, which break in these offline disconnected scenarios. Some of the most common issues revolve around installation packages and security updates not being accessible behind the air gap or firewall boundaries.

Landscape is Canonical’s systems management tool that enables administrators to control, monitor and update Ubuntu systems at scale. Managing assets is a key component of all security & compliance frameworks, and Landscape enables a range of security controls within an Ubuntu deployment. One feature of Landscape that is particularly relevant for air-gapped environments is package and repository mirroring, or the ability to copy packages and updates from an internet server and make them available to clients behind a firewall or air gap.

In this webinar we will cover what air-gapped environments are, why they might be a requirement in various scenarios, and how Landscape can be deployed and used to address the most common problems with distributing software packages and updates behind the air gap.

Using Landscape for Air-Gapped Ubuntu Deployments

Security is the foundation of modern IT, and in this webinar, Canonical and IBM will show how Ubuntu & IBM LinuxONE and IBM Z delivers enterprise-grade protection without compromising agility or cost efficiency. We’ll explore technologies that secure critical workloads: hardware-assisted cryptography, pervasive encryption for data at rest and in transit, and confidential computing that isolates sensitive applications from threats.

You’ll also learn how Canonical Livepatch minimizes downtime for essential systems, and how Ubuntu’s FIPS-certified modules and Common Criteria certifications simplify compliance in highly regulated industries. Meanwhile, IBM LinuxONE adds an extra layer of resilience, ensuring your workloads remain protected against future threats - when combined with centralized compliance and auditing capabilities (including automated controls and real-time monitoring), this solution empowers IT teams to confidently meet standards like GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS.

Join us to explore how Canonical and IBM are redefining open source enterprise security at scale, and how you can secure your infrastructure for today and tomorrow.

Security at scale: Cost-efficient Ubuntu solutions on IBM LinuxONE and IBM Z

Linux is well known for the flexibility, interoperability, and control it offers to developers. 
Building upon years of contributions from the open source community, Ubuntu is the most widely used Linux OS among professional IoT developers, according to the 2024 State of IoT Report by Eseye. 


However, using Linux on embedded and IoT devices presents a unique set of challenges compared to servers, including maintenance complexity, security risks, and deployment at scale. To address these challenges, Canonical created Ubuntu Core: a minimal, containerized, and immutable flavor of Ubuntu for embedded systems.

Like Ubuntu, Ubuntu Core is fully open source and binary-compatible, but with added features tailored specifically to the needs of devices: secure boot, full-disk encryption, confined application packages, and reliable OTA updates. Its immutable architecture simplifies compliance, enhances security, and reduces operational risk across fleets of devices.

In this webinar, we’ll cover:
Key challenges in managing IoT and edge devices at scale
Security and maintenance considerations for embedded Linux
Why Ubuntu Core is the new standard for production-grade IoT deployments

Embedded Ubuntu for devices

Explore the performance differences and future direction of two leading in-memory databases

Redis. Then Valkey. Now Redis and Valkey? 

Redis has long been a go-to choice for developers seeking an open source caching solution. However, in March 2024, Redis shifted to a source-available license, sparking the creation of several forks – one of the most popular being Valkey. A year later, Redis returned to open source under the AGPLv3 license, leaving many developers and organizations weighing their options between Redis and Valkey.

In this webinar, we’ll:
Dive into the differences between these two solutions and what those differences mean from a performance, operability and community engagement perspective 
Explore how the two projects might diverge further in the future
Explain how Canonical can support you in adopting, securing and scaling both open-source databases
Live Q&A session – bring your questions :)

Do you want to build your own cloud in your homelab? Or just have a way to simulate a cloud environment for development and testing? Join us for this webinar that will guide you through the steps needed to build a homelab, or other personal, small-scale private cloud projects. 
We’ll also introduce you to Canonical MicroCloud, a lightweight, open source cloud platform that is perfect for homelabs and small-scale deployments. MicroCloud is deployed with only one command, without the need for specialist knowledge. It also requires minimal resources and can be easily run on both commodity and high-end hardware. 

MicroCloud is a cloud for everyone. Whether you’re a technology enthusiast with a homelab or an enterprise architect with a distributed cloud to maintain, you’ll find it seamless to deploy and run.

In this session, you’ll discover:
- What a homelab is and how it empowers you to take control of your infrastructure
- The benefits of having your own private cloud, including complete data ownership, enhanced privacy and the freedom to experiment and customize
- Popular use cases, from self-hosted apps and media servers to development environments
- The tools, hardware, and steps to get started on a budget
- How MicroCloud is a great fit for homelab

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! Perhaps you’re keen to explore the use of open source software within your organization but have questions about its security and suitability for the enterprise.
In this webinar, Canonical’s Ijlal Loutfi and Henry Coggill 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 emerging threats. Finally, we will explore how Canonical’s enterprise-grade support delivers a comprehensive platform for secure open-source adoption.
