Canonical Ubuntu 18.04 LTS will reach end of standard support on 31 May 2023.
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS end of standard support is 31 May 2023—ensure your VMs are on a supported operating system You're receiving this email because you've deployed Ubuntu 18.04 on Azure.
On 31 May 2023, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS will reach the end of standard support. After this date, you'll still be able to use your existing virtual machines, however, security, maintenance, and feature updates will no longer be provided by Canonical and your VMs may become vulnerable.
To avoid potential vulnerabilities, review the following options and choose the one that best fits your needs:
- Upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS or Ubuntu 22.04 LTS , the latest operating systems which offer improved performance and hardware enablement.
- Purchase Ubuntu Pro , which includes security patching for all Ubuntu packages. Ubuntu Pro 18.04 LTS will remain fully supported until April 2028.
Read more details about these options.
Recommended action To ensure your VMs are running on a supported OS and can still receive security updates, upgrade Ubuntu or purchase Ubuntu Pro by 31 May 2023.
