Ubuntu Pro on AWS | ||
----------------- | ||
Ubuntu Pro is a paid offering that provides expanded security coverage, | ||
enhanced kernel patching, and hardening options for compliance frameworks. | ||
All Ubuntu Pro images on Amazon receive the following support through Pro. | ||
|
||
Expanded Security Maintenance (ESM) | ||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
`ESM archives <https://ubuntu.com/security/esm>`_ extends the security patching of | ||
the main archive to 10 years through the `esm-infra` entitlement. In addition | ||
to patching the core of Ubuntu, Pro offers security maintenance of a large | ||
portion of the `universe` pocket. This security coverage is considered best effort | ||
without Ubuntu Pro. | ||
|
||
Livepatch | ||
~~~~~~~~~ | ||
`Livepatch <https://ubuntu.com/security/livepatch>`_ applies security updates | ||
to the kernel for critical and high security vulnerabilities to a live system. | ||
This provides a buffer for system administrators to minimise downtime between | ||
scheduled maintenance windows. This is particularly helpful for workloads | ||
that are expensive to migrate, such as kubernetes workers for EKS. | ||
|
||
Compliance | ||
~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
Ubuntu Pro offers compliance options for users that need to apply | ||
CIS (level 1 and 2) or FIPS hardening. FIPS is currently supported | ||
on Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04. 22.04 is currently available through the | ||
`fips-preview` and `fips-updates` repositories provided through the | ||
FIPS pro entitlement, but these modules are not yet certified. | ||
|
||
Ubuntu Landscape | ||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
All Ubuntu Pro customers are entitled to usage of the | ||
`Landscape <https://ubuntu.com/landscape>_` SaaS solution. | ||
Landscape is an endpoint management solution for monitoring your Ubuntu | ||
estate. This includes alerting for security vulnerabilities, patching status, | ||
managing repository mirrors, and more. To sign up for Landscape SaaS see | ||
the `sign up page <https://landscape.canonical.com/signup>_`. |

Support options on AWS | ||
============================ | ||
|
||
Ubuntu Pro on AWS | ||
----------------- | ||
Ubuntu Pro provides numerous support options. Please see the `Pro <pro>`_ page for | ||
more details. | ||
|
||
|
||
Amazon front line support | ||
------------------------- | ||
Canonical and Amazon collaborate on publishing Ubuntu Pro images | ||
through the `Amazon Web Services marketplace seller <https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/search/results?searchTerms=ubuntu+pro&CREATOR=e6a5002c-6dd0-4d1e-8196-0a1d1857229b&filters=CREATOR>`_. | ||
Users of these images are able to get support directly through the | ||
`AWS support portal <https://console.aws.amazon.com/support/home#/case/create?issueType=technical>`_. | ||
|
||
|
||
Public Bug Tracker | ||
------------------ | ||
The Canonical Public Cloud (CPC) team maintains a bug tracker for all cloud images. If you find | ||
a problem with a cloud image you case `file a bug <https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-images/+filebug>`_. | ||
When creating a bug please describe the issue, provide a minimal reproducer, and ensure you include | ||
which AMI you see this issue on. CPC regularly triage issues but note that support here is | ||
best effort. |
