Develop, deploy and maintain your fleet of robots with Ubuntu.
We provide you with the essential infrastructure to easily, securely, and reliably deploy your robots
Our open source tools help you:
For more than a decade, Ubuntu has provided the best development environment for robotics developers. Your team can easily build and securely deploy their devices with Ubuntu Core, an operating system optimised for IoT and edge devices, and Snaps, fully-confined embedded containers. For low-tech device management, the IoT Snap Store enables developers to unlock a reliable and widely-used update infrastructure that's ideal for robotics applications.

With Ubuntu Core and the Snap store, full containerisation means:
Comply with cybersecurity requirements with in-built security for your device
With Ubuntu Core, in-built security means:
Deploy robust platforms with our enterprise services for robotics companies and provide a production-grade solution to your customer.
Our services allow robotics companies to reduce overhead costs and operational expenses for deployment, maintenance, security and support. Our services for robotics companies include:
Embedded applications depend on the kernel, drivers, libraries, file systems, and runtime environment. How can you guarantee that your robot will continue working after critical security upgrades to the base kernel and the OS?
Our Enablement services allow you to get a production-grade Ubuntu image for your robot, while our Maintenance services guarantee that any security update won't break your device.
No regressions, no surprises.

This includes core ROS libraries, the underlying Ubuntu system and more than 23,000 packages from the Ubuntu Universe repository.
No more neglecting security updates.
Treat every device on your fleet as a first-class server-grade managed asset, with monitoring, security, role-based access controls, and application lifecycle management. The embedding program includes:
Whatever cybersecurity framework you have chosen, including ISO 27000, NIST, PCI, or CIS Controls, Ubuntu helps you stay compliant and reduces your operational risk.
Access automation for hardening and compliance profiles, such as CIS and DISA-STIG, as well as the FIPS 140-2 and Common Criteria certifications.
With partners across the industry, we are creating a new kind of embedded OS for hardware platforms. Work with certified hardware to minimise your startup costs and time to market.
