About Canonical
Canonical, the publisher of Ubuntu, provides open source security maintenance, support, and services. Our portfolio covers critical systems, from the smallest devices to the largest clouds, from the kernel to containers, from databases to AI. With customers that include top tech brands, emerging startups, governments, and home users, Canonical delivers trusted open source for everyone.
Canonical Commitment
As the second biggest contributor to OpenStack and an undisputed leader in open source distribution, our goal is to make OpenStack deployable by anyone, anywhere, and at any scale. To achieve that we launched Sunbeam. Project Sunbeam delivers an opinionated, truly cloud-native OpenStack, with full bottom-up automation. It follows Ubuntu security commitments, as required by enterprise customers.
