"Snaps allow developers to build and deploy applications in a format that’s easily portable and upgradeable across a number of IoT devices so that a cognitive relationship between the cloud and the edges of the network can be established."

"It’s very convenient to have a stable platform on which we can develop applications. Now we spend more time working on the fun problems. The things that we’re interested in. That’s why we all got into gaming in the first place."

"A new wave of workloads demand breakthrough efficiencies in density, energy, and operational costs which can be scaled to a customer’s IT environment."

"We are working with Canonical to ensure we are properly supported as we scale out our Ubuntu cloud. In particular, we are looking at the Ubuntu Advantage service, which gives us access to Canonical support engineers and Openstack contributors working at Canonical, whenever we ever need them."

"Deploying our new cloud infrastructure in less than three months was a real achievement. Familiarity with Ubuntu made the entire process much simpler. Its ease of use and robustness also allowed for a fast migration."

"The results have been fantastic. Ubuntu is very, very stable and the servers cope well with the lunch time ‘hit’. IT Lab usage has gone up during lunch and break times since we have been using Ubuntu. Plus, it has enabled us to increase the manageability of the network environment …

"When we discovered that Canonical was offering a new, extended support package, we didn’t hesitate to sign up. ESM effectively rendered the security problem a non-issue."

"We use Ubuntu primarily because it is such a stable and reliable operating system. ESM builds on this foundation even further, and helps us deliver an even better service to our clients."

"The solution had to be robust and powerful enough to process, manage, organise and deliver time-critical data to lawyers in order to prise them away from their box files. Our clients had to be convinced and, at the same time, we wanted to be free to make unplanned decisions and …
