Canonical Metal-as-a-Service: Not Quite As Cool As It Sounds (Techcrunch)
Canonical, the corporate sponsor of the Ubuntu Linux distribution, has been
doing a lot of interesting development work across a number of different
computing segments: their on-going work with the Unity interface for Ubuntu,
Ubuntu TV, Ubuntu for Android, and a whole lot more. Ubuntu, according to
Canonical, is the world’s most popular OS for public, private, and hybrid
clouds. Not content with being a tenant, Canonical is pushing to make Ubuntu
the number one OS for running clouds, too. Similarly uncontent with existing
descriptors like Platform-as-a-Service (Paas) and Infrastructure-as-a-Service
(Iaas), Canonical is announcing their own Metal-as-a-Service (MaaS). When I
first heard the term “Metal as a Service”, I admit that I immediately
envisioned Ubuntu’s Jono Bacon distributing heavy metal free software songs.
MaaS is, in fact, a new server orchestration solution cooked up by Canonical.
