Canonical's 'distroless' Linux images are a game-changer for enterprises


Canonical plans to offer customized Docker Linux container images with a dozen years of long-term support.

Canonical CEO Mark Shuttleworth didn't mince his words: "Everything LTS means CVE maintenance for your entire open-source dependency tree, including open source that is not already packaged as a deb in Ubuntu." Our enterprise and ISV customers can now count on Canonical to meet regulatory maintenance requirements with any open source stack, no matter how large or complex, wherever they want to deploy it." Canonical plans to maintain the 2,000 widely used AI/ML libraries and tools, including heavy hitters such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, and Rapids, as source code instead of as Debian/Ubuntu deb packages.
