An interim Ubuntu Linux release optimized for AWS. This production-quality version lets you try the latest open source software before the next LTS, with 9 months of support.
Overview
Ubuntu is the world's most popular Linux for cloud environments and is suitable for small to large-scale Linux operations. Ubuntu Server optimized for use on AWS is designed by Canonical (the publishers of Ubuntu). For more information, visit https://ubuntu.com/aws .
Interim releases, issued every 6 months, introduce new features from Canonical and upstream open source projects. They serve as a proving ground for early adopters, testers, and users who need the latest runtimes, kernels, and libraries before the next LTS.
Ubuntu is free and will always be, with the option to access additional security, management tools and technical support when you need it through additional commercial offerings from Canonical.
Why developers and devops choose Ubuntu Server optimized for use on AWS
- Production ready: Ubuntu is the leading Linux in the public cloud with > 50% of Linux workloads
- Developer friendly: Ubuntu is the #1 Linux for developers offering the latest library and tools to innovate with the latest technologies
- No mandatory licenses: Ubuntu Server is freely available, with no mandatory licenses and unlimited VMs
- Non-stop security: Canonical publishes images on a daily basis, ensuring security is built-in from the moment an instance launches
- Optimized performance: optimized kernel, with improved boot speed, outstanding runtime performance and advanced device support
- Portability: Ubuntu is available in all regions with content mirrors to avoid the need to go across regions or out to the Internet for updates
For professional environments or applications where additional security and compliance would be beneficial, or where you might want to continue using the environment beyond , Canonical recommends an Ubuntu pro subscription (learn more at https://ubuntu.com/aws/pro ).
