The embedded Linux OS
for devices
Ubuntu Core is a minimal, secure and strictly confined operating system powering devices around the world. Build your Ubuntu Core image today.
Ubuntu Core is more than just your embedded Linux OS, it's your whole deployment infrastructure. Build targeted
production-ready images, unlock over-the air (OTA) updates, deploy in air gap environments, manage your fleet of
devices, achieve real-time operations, comply with cybersecurity requirements and more.
Ubuntu Core will transform the way you deploy devices with the longest support window in the industry — 12 years.
Imagine a world where every device is trustworthy. We designed every aspect of Ubuntu Core to create the most
secure embedded Linux ever, with a 12 year LTS commitment.
Enjoy reliable, remotely accessible and recoverable devices which are always up-to-date with mission-critical
OTA updates. In connected or air-gap environments.
Ubuntu Core is immutable and strictly confined. There is a clean separation between the kernel, OS image and
applications, each updated independently and protected against corruption.
We enable Ubuntu Core with the best ODMs and silicon vendors in the world. We continuously test it on leading
IoT and edge devices and hardware.
Use the same kernel, the same libraries, and the same system software for a smooth transition from development
to production. Once you have created your application in Ubuntu Desktop or Server, build your immutable Ubuntu
Core image based on your developed applications and targeted hardware.
Bosch adopts Ubuntu Core and snaps for app-based ctrl-X industry 4.0 platform. Pudo chooses Ubuntu Core as the foundation for its IoT-based APMs to maximise security and uptime. Ubuntu Core enables Rigado to manage end-to-end security for commercial IoT gateways.
IBM Cloud's bare metal servers offer highly isolated and high-performing tenant-cloud isolation through the use of Ubuntu Core.
Whether you are a startup bringing your concept to market or already have large fleets of devices deployed in the field, we have the expertise and infrastructure to launch and support you.
