This means working on simplifying the user's life, while focusing on advanced features, rock-solid stability, and high performance. We want Ubuntu Server to be the '''best''' operating system for both deploying the cloud and other scale-out services (e.g. hadoop), and running in the cloud, be them public or private.
Line 3: Line 9:
The server team, under the able stewardship of Thom "I Bleed For Servers" May, aims to ensure that Ubuntu installs cleanly on data-center grade servers from all major manufacturers. While linux support for server hardware is now generally excellent, the servers themselves often present unusual challenges for the installer. Team Leader: Thom May. Seems exciting ?

=== Goals ===

 * Make Ubuntu first class general purpose server platform, with special emphasis on ease of use for the admin.
 * Diversify even more range of hardware platforms Ubuntu could use as a server system on.
 * Make sure Ubuntu servers scale nicely with workload.
 * Make Ubuntu an attractive server platform for orgs and coprporations.
 * Bring ubuntu to the state which allows it to seemingly assimilate in clustering environments.

=== Issues ===
 
Ubuntu is a desktop system common perception, how to change?

 * Education, Documentation: Ubuntu as a router, web/nfd/Samba/print/mail/http/content/telephony server.
 * Tools: make server bleeding edge available to skilled admins, make everybody a skilled admin in the future with easier tools and the right interfaces.
 * Marketing : Talk about how Ubuntu is already integrating nicely in hetrogeneous networks. (i.e. win/novell/linux/sun ...)
 * Special editions : Ubuntu Internet Server, Ubuntu Telephony Platform, Ubuntu LAN Server , Ubuntu DevHub Server ....


=== People ===

 * SivanGreen (documentation, planning, testing)
 * JeffBailey
 * Ghe Rivero
