Drive your solutions with a simple, flexible operations platform

Deploy, integrate and manage your solutions at scale, on any infrastructure using your own software operator.

Canonical's Charm SDK allows you to build operators and package your operational knowledge as code, so you can automate more and focus on business value.


Reuse operators for popular
open source applications

Build larger solutions more quickly by integrating with available Charms on Charmhub.io.

Charms allow faster software delivery of reference builds, consistent upgrades and simplified operations, whether on edge, private or public clouds.

Deliver fully secured and supported applications

The most comprehensive subscription for open source software security.

Ubuntu is a popular and reliable base image for building custom container images. It's also available as hardened container images, with stable tracks from development to production. With an optional Ubuntu Pro subscription, you get 10 years of guaranteed security maintenance from Canonical's trusted repositories.


Ubuntu: the most popular Linux on public clouds

Ubuntu is the world's most popular operating system (OS) across public clouds. Thanks to its security, versatility and policy of regular updates, Ubuntu is the leading cloud guest OS. It's also the only free, cloud OS with the option of enterprise-grade commercial support and compliance for regulated environments.

Get 10 years of stability for infrastructure, OS and applications

Ubuntu Pro expands Canonical's security maintenance to 23,000 packages beyond the main OS covering critical infrastructure packages and many open source applications. Weekday or 24/7 support is also available on top of the Ubuntu Pro subscription to help you ensure business continuity.

Hardened long term supported (LTS) OCI images

The LTS Image Portfolio provides ready-to-use base images free of high and critical CVEs. The same secure infrastructure that produces the popular Ubuntu releases also builds these images. Images are updated automatically when apps or dependencies are fixed.

Minimal, secure and efficient containers

Create chiselled Ubuntu OCI images and get your containerised applications optimised for performance.

Lean OCI images

Reduce the attack surface, improving your security posture by shipping only what's needed.

Leverage performance benefits in addition to better security and a smaller image size, with faster downloads and start-up times.

Consume significantly less resources, saving on energy bills and promoting greener infrastructures.


Combine Distroless and Ubuntu

Chiselled Ubuntu images are created using high-quality components from the Ubuntu distribution and are updated in accordance with the same release cycle and with the same support guarantees (5-year LTS, 10-year ESM plus optional weekday or 24/7 support).

No operating system-level packages or libraries that are not required at runtime. No package manager or shell (apt or bash, resulting in a minimal footprint).
