Above this, Canonical MAAS handles hardware automation and Canonical Ubuntu serves as the operating system. The infrastructure management layer displays Canonical OpenStack, Kubernetes, Landscape, and MicroCloud. Data solutions include PostgreSQL, Cassandra, Apache Spark, etcd, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, Kafka, Ceph, OpenSearch, and Valkey. The top AI/ML layer features Kubeflow, MLflow, Feast, and vLLM

Full-stack AI infrastructure

Hardware automation

Automate the provisioning and management of your data center hardware, including the GPUs, SmartNICs, and DPUs you need to drive your AI workloads.


Operating system

Ubuntu is the operating system of choice for AI. Get access to the broadest ecosystem of machine learning tools and libraries, and diversify your silicon supply chain for resiliency with an OS optimized for all the leading architectures.


Infrastructure management

Build your cloud, modernize your workloads for AI, manage your entire Ubuntu estate. Enjoy bottom-up infrastructure automation so you can focus on your business.


Data solutions

There's no AI without data. Canonical delivers a comprehensive portfolio of integrated open source solutions for database management, data processing, search, and caching.


MLOps

Our modular MLOps platform equips you with everything you need to bring your models all the way from experimentation to production.


Optimized for leading silicons

Solve the challenge of silicon enablement with AI infrastructure solutions that run optimally across all major architectures.


Tested and certified with the world's largest hardware vendors

Accelerate time-to-value with validated hardware.


Private, public, sovereign, or hybrid

Choose the ideal AI infrastructure for your use cases. For instance, start quickly with no risk and low investment on public clouds, then migrate your workloads to your private cloud as you scale.

With Canonical's solutions, you can run your workloads anywhere, including sovereign, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments.


Trusted across clouds

Get started easily on your cloud of choice with optimized and certified Ubuntu images.


Kubernetes optimized for AI

Doing more with AI means modernizing your workloads. Modernized workloads mean containerization – and containers need Kubernetes.

Canonical Kubernetes is optimized to enhance AI/ML performance, incorporating features that amplify processing power and reduce latency, developed and integrated in a tight collaboration with NVIDIA.


AI infrastructure in the real world, powered by Canonical

ESA

Lowering the cost and complexity of critical space missions

We wanted one partner for the whole on-premise cloud because we’re not just supporting Kubernetes but also our Ceph clusters, managed Postgres, Kafka, and AI tools such as Kubeflow and Spark. These were all the services that were needed and with this we could have one nice, easy joined-up approach.

Cost-effective, security-maintained, and supported

Canonical maintains and supports all the open source tooling in your AI infrastructure stack, including Kubernetes and open source cloud management solutions like OpenStack.

Enterprise support for the entire stack is available with a transparent subscription, Ubuntu Pro, so you have full control over your TCO.

Fast-track compliance and run AI projects securely. Let us handle the CVEs.
