Ubuntu 18.04 LTS release transitions to extended security maintenance
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS release transitions to extended security maintenance
News on June 1st, Canonical announced today that the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) operating system series has officially transitioned to Extended Security Maintenance (ESM) and will be launched in May 2023. Effective immediately on the 31st.
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) continues its tradition of providing commercial support for Ubuntu LTS versions in the form of Extended Security Maintenance (ESM, Extended Security Maintenance). After reaching the end of standard support after maintenance, Ubuntu 16.04 ESM products will end support in April 2024.
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS was released five years ago, on April 26, 2018, and will now have critical bug and security fixes provided by Canonical for five years through the Extended Security Maintenance (ESM) package of Ubuntu Advantage for Infrastructure Supported until April 2028.
Businesses that rely on stability and are not yet able to upgrade to newer Ubuntu LTS releases are advised to purchase an Ubuntu Pro subscription if they want to benefit from five years of support for their Bionic Beaver installations.
Ubuntu Pro is available for amd64, arm64, s390X and PowerPC architectures and is available for desktops, servers, IoT devices, public clouds on AWS (Amazon Web Services), Azure and Google Cloud, as well as IBM Cloud and Oracle Cloud platform.
"By subscribing to Ubuntu Pro, you ensure that your Ubuntu 18.04 LTS deployments are fully supported until 2028. This extended support period provides ongoing assistance and maintenance for your workloads," Canonical said.
Those users who have no plans to purchase an Ubuntu Pro subscription are urged to upgrade their installations to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) as soon as possible, which brings an updated kernel that supports more devices, as well as a number of update packages.
Canonical states that the supported upgrade path from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS is through Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and then to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
Users still running Ubuntu 18.04 after May 31, 2023 will not receive any security updates, which means this installation will be exposed to security threats.
