I-Ubuntu Pro iphinde inikeze ukufinyelela kumapeshi abukhoma, okukuvumela ukuthi usebenzise izibuyekezo ze-Linux kernel endizeni ngaphandle kokuqalisa kabusha.
ICanonical isimemezele lokho kulungele ukusetshenziswa kabanzi kwesevisi ye-Ubuntu Pro (owayekade eyi-Ubuntu Advantage), eyaqala ukukhishwa ku-beta ngo-Okthoba 2022 ngokubhaliselwe kwamahhala kokusetshenziswa komuntu siqu nokokuhweba, okuhlinzeka ngokufinyelela kuzibuyekezo ezinwetshiwe zamagatsha e-LTS e-Ubuntu.
Isevisi inikeza ithuba lokuthola izibuyekezo ngokulungiswa kokuba sengozini phakathi neminyaka emi-10 (isikhathi sokugcinwa okuvamile kwamagatsha e-LTS iminyaka engu-5) kumaphakheji engeziwe we-23,000, phezu kwamaphakheji amakhulu enqolobane.
Kulabo abangazi ngo-Ubuntu Pro, kufanele bazi ukuthi insizakalo itholakala mahhala kubantu ngabanye nakumabhizinisi amancane anababungazi abaphathekayo abangafika kwabangu-5 kwingqalasizinda yakho (uhlelo luphinde luhlanganise yonke imishini ebonakalayo ebanjwe kulaba basingathi).
Ukuthola amathokheni okufinyelela ensizakalo ye-Ubuntu Profree, i-akhawunti ye-Ubuntu One iyadingeka (bala noma ubani angathola).
ICanonical inomlando weminyaka engu-18 wezibuyekezo zezokuphepha ezifika ngesikhathi ohlelweni oluyisisekelo lwe-Ubuntu, olunama-CVE abalulekile afakwe nezichibiyelo ngaphansi kwamahora angama-24 ngokwesilinganiso. Ukufakwa kwe-Ubuntu Pro kuhlanganisa ama-CVE abalulekile, aphezulu, namaphakathi ezinkulungwane zezinhlelo zokusebenza namaketanga amathuluzi, okuhlanganisa i-Ansible, Apache Tomcat, Apache Zookeeper, Docker, Nagios, Node.js, phpMyAdmin, Puppet, PowerDNS, Python, Redis, Rust, WordPress, futhi nokuningi.
Ubuntu Pro iyatholakala kuzo zonke izinguqulo ze-Ubuntu LTS eziqala nge-16.04 LTS. Isivele ikhiqizwa amakhasimende amakhulu ahlinzeka ngezinsizakalo zomhlaba jikelele. Inguqulo ye-beta inconywe izinkampani ezifana ne-NVIDIA, Google, Acquia, VMWare, kanye ne-LaunchDarkly. Kusukela kwamenyezelwa inguqulo ye-beta ngo-Okthoba 2022, amashumi ezinkulungwane zabasebenzisi baka-Ubuntu abhalisele le nkonzo.
Ukubhalisa ku Ubuntu Pro (I-Infra kuphela) ihlanganisa isistimu yokusebenza eyisisekelo kanye nezingxenye zamafu eziyimfihlo edingekayo ukuze kusetshenziswe isikali esigcwele, kodwa akufaki ukufakwa kwezicelo ezintsha, ezibanzi. Kuwusizo ezinhlanganweni ezakha amafu angasese zisebenzisa ezinye izinhlelo zokusebenza zezihambeli zezinhlelo zokusebenza.
Ngaphezu kokuhlinzeka ngeziqephu zokuphepha ezifika ngesikhathiUbuntu Pro kufaka phakathi amathuluzi okuphatha ukuthobela ezindaweni ezilawulwayo nezihloliwe. Umhlahlandlela Wokuphepha we-Ubuntu (USG) unikeza ukufinyelela kumazinga angcono kakhulu okuphoqelela nokuthobela, njengamabhentshimakhi e-CIS kanye namaphrofayela e-DISA-STIG.
Abasebenzisi be-Ubuntu Pro ingafinyelela amaphakheji e-cryptographic aqinisekisiwe e-FIPS edingwa yizo zonke izikhungo zikahulumeni wobumbano, kanye nezinhlangano ezisebenza ngaphansi kwezimiso zokuthobela ezifana ne-FedRAMP, i-HIPAA, ne-PCI-DSS.
Ukuphathwa kwesistimu nokunamathisela okuzenzakalelayo esikalini kwenziwa kube lula ngeLandscape. I-Ubuntu Pro ifaka ne-Livepatch, elungisa ukuqina okuphezulu kanye nokuba sengozini okubucayi ngesikhathi sokusebenza kwe-kernel ukuze kuncishiswe isidingo sokuqalisa kabusha okungahleliwe kwemikhumbi yakho ye-Ubuntu.
I-Ubuntu Pro iyatholakala futhi ezimakethe zabalingani bayo bamafu omphakathi: i-AWS, i-Azure, ne-Google Cloud. Inikezwa ngehora, ikhokhiswe ngokuqondile ngamafu, ngentengo ecishe ibe ngu-3,5% wesilinganiso sezindleko zekhompiyutha eziyisisekelo.
Njengoba sekushiwo kakade Ubuntu Pro inikeza amalungu asemthethweni omphakathi we-Ubuntu athole ukufinyelela kwamahhala kwabasingathi abangafika kwabangama-50, ngenkathi okubhaliselwe okukhokhelwayo kungu-$25 ngonyaka indawo yokusebenza ngayinye kanye no-$500 ngonyaka ngeseva ngayinye, kanye nesivivinyo samahhala sezinsuku ezingama-30 sinikezwaisixhumanisi esilandelayo.
Kubasebenzisi abafuna ukuthola izibuyekezo ezinwetshiwe, bangakwenza kusukela kutheminali ngokusebenzisa imiyalo:
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-advantage-tools=27.11.2~$(lsb_release -rs).1 pro security status sudo pro attach TOKEN
Lapho i-TOKEN itholakala khona ithokheni yakho yezintambo ezingu-30 kusukela ekubhaliseni kwakho kwe-Ubuntu Pro. Ngemva kwalokho sivumela izibuyekezo zokulungisa nge:
sudo pro enable esm-apps --beta
Noma ungase futhi wenze le nqubo kusukela kuhlelo lokusebenza lwesithombe "Isofthiwe nezibuyekezo" (ithebhu ye-Livepatch).
Okokugcina uma unentshisekelo yokwazi kabanzi ngakho mayelana ne-Ubuntu Pro, ungabheka imininingwane kokuthi isixhumanisi esilandelayo.
