โ โItโs not easy to get access to AI-ready hardware in your data center, but the sort of partnership we have with Google means that we can meet customers where they are. That engineering collaboration between the two companies is really advantageous for our end customers.โ - Alex Gallagher, VP of Cloud, Canonical
โ โWe now have over 6 billion instance hours of Ubuntu. That means there's just a ton of people innovating on Google, producing the next wave of interesting technology. I'm super excited to be riding that wave with them.โ
- Alex Gallagher, VP of Cloud, Canonical
โ Canonical is investing in meeting customers where they are, rather than dictating where they have to run. Through its partnership with Google Cloud, using Ubuntu for AI workloads is even easier, whether organizations are leveraging containers, virtual machines, or bringing software appliances to the data center. Google Cloud puts Canonical on the front-lines of AI innovation, delivering powerful, cutting-edge Ubuntu experiences that seamlessly integrate with every technology stack, so teams have more time to spend building models that drive competitive differentiation.
