Ubuntu Pro is a cross-cloud OS optimized for Azure, security maintained for 10 years, that enables the secure use of open source software so teams can utilize the latest technologies while meeting internal governance and compliance requirements. It remains fully-compatible with Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS, but adds additional security enabled by default, as well as compliance and management tools in a form suitable for small to large-scale Linux operations.

Ubuntu Pro for Azure is the official Ubuntu image designed by Canonical, the publishers of Ubuntu, and optimized in collaboration with Microsoft for Azure. For more information, see Ubuntu Pro for Azure.
