Reading, UK, June 2023 – HIPER Global, a designer, manufacturer, and supplier of application-specific computing solutions, and Canonical, the manufacturer of the Ubuntu Linux distribution and provider of a variety of open-source products and support services, announced today a new partnership.

HIPER Global has partnered with Canonical as part of its ongoing efforts to provide their worldwide customers with the latest and greatest value-added services. These include a subscription to security fixes, long-term support services for the Ubuntu Linux distribution, and advanced Canonical products embedded in HIPER Global solutions. Among these are private cloud infrastructure products, virtualisation components, centralised management systems, and supported versions of Kubernetes for products produced by HIPER Global.

The Ubuntu Pro subscription will also provide HIPER Global’s customers with security updates and fixes for the operating system and common applications, support from experts, and access to Canonical’s extensive knowledge base.
