Ddos Canonical worked closely with IBM and finally officially moved the Ubuntu operating system to the LinuxONE Rockhopper II and z14 Model ZR1 server platforms recently released by the latter. According to a report released on Wednesday, it will work with the company’s LXD next-generation system container manager, the OpenStack open source cloud computing software platform, the Juju application and service modeling tool, and the Kubernetes distribution of Canonical.
It is reported that this cooperation will provide enterprises and developers with the complete tools needed to complete work on their infrastructure, build and deploy applications, and realize large-scale management in a single system.
As for the hybrid cloud environment, IBM’s new system also comes with an infrastructure certified with Docker Enterprise Edition that integrates management and support for scale testing in up to 330,000 Docker containers.
Regis Paquette, head of the Canonical Global Cloud Technology Alliance, said:
“Canonical began this journey with IBM two years ago and we’ve seen tremendous progress in a relatively short period of time. We are thrilled to now enable IBM’s scale-up platform with full cloud native capabilities and automation, while leveraging their best-in-class secure environment.”
Canonical also stated that Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) also supports IBM’s new server, which will be released later this month (April 26, 2018), and it is also the seventh long-term support version of Ubuntu.
