Industrial cybersecurity is on every CISO’s mind as manufacturers strive to integrate their IT and OT operations to drive efficiency and productivity. However, with increased connectivity comes heightened risk. This means that securing devices, networks, and systems is a critical challenge. Canonical, the publisher of...
With automation spanning virtually every sector of society, real-time capable operating systems (OS) are becoming critical across industries, from automotive and telecommunications, to industrial manufacturing. A real-time operating system (RTOS) ensures precise and deterministic responses, meeting strict timing...
SPS (Smart Production Solutions) 2024 is almost here! With over 1,200 national and international exhibitors, SPS is the main gathering of industrial manufacturing to experience the latest trends and developments in the automation industry first-hand. Join Canonical, the company behind Ubuntu, at SPS 2024 to discuss open...
London, 30 May 2024. Today Canonical announced the availability of Real-time Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. By ensuring high-priority processes are executed first, with deterministic response times, Real-time Ubuntu 24.04 LTS reduces latency compared to mainline Linux and enhances the system’s ability to handle time-sensitive...
As Canonical approaches its 20th anniversary, we have proven our proficiency in managing a resilient software supply chain. But in the pursuit of excellence, we are always looking to set new standards in software development and embrace cutting-edge quality management practices. This enables us to meet current...
Download our latest Whitepaper: A CTO’s Guide to Real-time Linux Welcome to this two-part blog series on real-time systems which asks the question: Real-time Linux vs RTOS, which is best for you? In Part I we looked at the basics of a real-time system where we explained that a real-time system must respond to events
Discover Real-time with our latest whitepaper: A CTO’s Guide to Real-time Linux Welcome to this two-part blog series on Linux vs RTOS (Real-time Operating System). This series will explain the differences between achieving real-time requirements with a Linux kernel and doing the same with an RTOS. Part I will explain...
In the mission-critical workloads of modern enterprises, where time boundaries and determinism can make a major difference, the demand for real-time systems has never been more urgent. In our latest whitepaper, we delve into the realm of real-time Linux. The whitepaper is a comprehensive guide to understanding and...
The industrial automation landscape is evolving rapidly, driven by a fundamental shift in how software solutions are developed and deployed. In the past, many factories had in-house IT expertise to build and maintain their basic software stacks, the present reality is quite different. Small-scale factories often lack...
Delivering a comprehensive real-time solution for industrial systems requires careful work at every layer of the stack. Since standalone hardware or software components are not sufficient, Canonical and Intel have joined forces to deliver an out-of-the-box real-time solution. This solution is now generally available on...
Canonical delivers Real-time Ubuntu on Intel Core processors with TSN and Intel TCC support London, 26 July 2023: Canonical today announced the availability of Real-time Ubuntu optimised on Intel Core processors. The solution enables enterprises to harness the power of optimised Linux on Intel silicon for a wide range...
This blog expands our technical deep-dive into a real-time kernel. You will need to be familiar with a real-time kernel to understand the tuning concepts in this blog. If you are starting from scratch and need to revisit the basics of preemption and a real-time system, watch this introductory webinar. If you are...
Canonical announced the general availability of Ubuntu’s real-time kernel earlier this year. Since then, our community raised several questions regarding the workings of the kernel and tuning guidelines. We aim to provide answers in this and an upcoming follow-up post. Depending on your background knowledge, you may...
Welcome to the final post of this three-part series on real-time Linux. As market adoption of real-time computing continues to rise, real-time in the Linux kernel is emerging as a valuable solution on the software side. A real-time Linux kernel on its own, however, will not necessarily make a system real-time. We...
