Ubuntu - news, usn

28.02.2026 12:20 From March 2-5 in Barcelona, Canonical will present a working wildlife conservation platform that combines open source 5G, AI, and cloud-native infrastructure in a travel friendly form factor. At the center is a portable 5G AI hotspot built on Ubuntu and Canonical Kubernetes, running on Arm-based Ampere servers. It connects drones, trail cameras, and researcher

27.02.2026 20:40 2025: From RISC-V enablement to real execution 2025 was the year that RISC-V readiness gave way to RISC-V adoption. It’s been quite a journey. What began years ago as early architectural exploration and enablement has matured into real silicon, systems, and deployments. In particular, RVA23 provides a stable and predictable baseline we can align on

26.02.2026 21:30 You’ve almost certainly seen them… In the forest, rummaging through a dumpster, in poorly aging millennial memes. Raccoons are ubiquitous and endlessly entertaining creatures. YouTube and TikTok are full of videos documenting their clever antics and escapades. One such intrepid raccoon gained fame for making their way to the most unlikely places, from liquor stores

24.02.2026 19:00 coRAN Labs and Canonical at MWC Barcelona 2026 At MWC Barcelona 2026, coRAN Labs and Canonical are presenting a working demonstration of a cloud-native, quantum-safe telecom platform for 5G and beyond 5G networks. This is not a conceptual exercise. It is a full 5G System deployment with post-quantum cryptography embedded across the stack –

18.02.2026 23:02 Previously I have written about how useful public cloud storage can be when starting a new project without knowing how much data you will need to store. However, as datasets grow over time, the costs of public cloud storage can become overwhelming. This is where an on premise, or co-located, self-hosted storage system becomes advantageous:

18.02.2026 01:22 For many software teams, documentation is written after features are built and design decisions have already been made. When that happens, questions about how a feature is understood or used often don’t surface until much later. A little over one year ago, our team began to recognize this pattern in our own work. Features generally

14.02.2026 01:31 Open source libraries are repositories of code that developers can use and, depending on the license, contribute to, modify, and redistribute. Open source libraries are usually developed on a platform like GitHub, and distributed using package registries like PyPI for Python and npm for JavaScript. These repositories contain pre-written, re-usable code that developers use to

13.02.2026 10:53 Last year, we had the opportunity to speak at Regent’s UX Conference , where we engaged with students to make them aware of open design and their ability to contribute design skills to open source projects. The talk sparked great discussion, and we

12.02.2026 20:20 This is the story of how Canonical’s Support team provided bug-fix support: we tracked down an upstream change in OpenSC that inadvertently broke FIPS compatibility, coordinated with upstream developers across distributions, and delivered both a hotfix and a proper universal solution.

12.02.2026 20:20 Building telco clouds with open source At MWC Barcelona 2026, Canonical is demonstrating how telecommunications operators and enterprises can design and operate a cloud on their own terms: sovereign, cost-effective, and built on open platforms that span from core data centers to the intelligent edge. One of the demos is the result of Canonical’s collaboration

11.02.2026 14:50 Modern data centres are hitting a wall that faster CPUs alone cannot fix. As workloads scale out and latency budgets shrink, the impact of moving data between servers is starting to become the most significant factor in overall performance. Remote Direct Memory Access, or RDMA, is one of the technologies reshaping how that data moves,

11.02.2026 00:12 PWC claimed the ‘fundamental challenge’ behind slowing growth is that telecom’s ‘core products and services’ are ‘becoming commodities.’ The way forward lies in modernizing and diversifying: evolving from traditional telecommunications to ‘techco’ services. In 2026, many of these opportunities will come from cloud computing.
