Canonical Adjusts Ubuntu Linux Partner Strategy
Canonical has made a subtle but important shift in its channel partner strategy. Sure, the Ubuntu Linux promoter continues to engage with solutions providers. But increasingly, Canonical wants to recruit hosting partners and cloud partners onto the Ubuntu bandwagon.
The story starts at HostingCon, an industry conference held last month in Austin, Texas. While there, The VAR Guy caught up with Robin Barley-Waegener, a member of Canonical’s channel partner organization.
During a brief booth-side chat, Barley-Waegener confirmed Canonical’s continued commitment to solutions providers. But she also pointed to her top priority: Getting hosting partners to embrace Ubuntu Server Edition and Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud. It sounds like Canonical is expects to pilot EUC with roughly 10 hosting partners by year’s end.
