Ubuntu Pro Is Now Available on AWS Deep Learning Amazon Machine Images (DLAMI)
Ubuntu, Thursday, November 5th, 2026
AWS published its first Deep Learning AMIs built on Ubuntu Pro, adding Expanded Security Maintenance and Kernel Livepatch for GPU workloads.
In September 2026 AWS released its first Deep Learning AMIs built on Ubuntu Pro in the Base GPU family, preinstalled with the NVIDIA driver, CUDA toolkits and the EFA networking stack.
Four image versions span two Ubuntu releases and two architectures, covering x86 GPU families from G4dn to P6-B300 and ARM instances including Grace Blackwell P6e-GB200 and P6e-GB300.
Ubuntu Pro adds Expanded Security Maintenance, extending security coverage to the Universe repository and from 5 to 10 years, and Kernel Livepatch to avoid reboots on long-running GPU machines.
The base image includes 38 Universe packages covered from launch, and images can be located via public AWS SSM parameters.
