INDUSTRIES
A clearer Linux starting point for sector-specific workloads.
Every sector carries different obligations, dependencies, and failure modes. Choose the operating context first, then move into the catalog with that context intact.
Government & public sector
Give public-sector cloud teams a named, testable Linux artifact when missions demand repeatable configuration, traceable change, and clear responsibility boundaries.
Financial services
Standardize the Linux layer beneath regulated financial workloads while keeping resilience, data protection, evidence, and risk ownership with the teams that operate the service.
Industrial & manufacturing
Create a consistent Linux foundation for industrial cloud workloads where uptime, supplier integration, and the boundary between enterprise and operational systems require deliberate testing.
Healthcare & life sciences
Strengthen the operating-system starting point beneath health and research workloads while keeping privacy, clinical safety, data governance, and application controls in their proper scope.
Energy & utilities
Standardize cloud Linux for energy and utility workloads without obscuring the separate responsibilities surrounding critical infrastructure, operational technology, resilience, and field operations.
Technology & SaaS
Move repeatable operating-system security into the platform layer so product teams can start from a known image without giving up delivery speed or workload-specific ownership.
Standardize the image without flattening the workload.
A hardened image can reduce configuration variation across teams while still allowing each regulated, critical, or customer-facing environment to validate its own application behavior and security responsibilities.
The right image is the one that fits the supported operating system, version, architecture, deployment model, and program context—not simply the strictest-looking option.
Start with the workload. Finish with an exact build.
Use the catalog to select the Linux distribution, release, architecture, and product line that fits the service.
