  • GDC Ready OS Images: Canonical supports multiple active releases of Google Distributed Cloud (1.9.x, 1.10.x, 1.11.x, and 1.12.x) ensuring Google Cloud has flexibility and choice.
  • Risk Mitigation: Canonical employs a two-tiered image system–”development” and “stable.” This allows for thorough testing of changes before they are released into the stable production environment, minimizing potential problems.
