AWS License Manager adds in-place Ubuntu LTS → Ubuntu Pro conversion
- Platform/SRE — Plan: New GA capability lets teams upgrade EC2 Ubuntu LTS fleets to Ubuntu Pro in-place via License Manager without AMI rebuilds, unlocking 10-year patch coverage and Kernel Livepatch. Worth evaluating this quarter if running Ubuntu LTS instances with compliance or extended-support requirements.
- CI/CD — Skip
- Leader — Learn: Simplifies the path to Ubuntu Pro subscriptions for EC2 fleets, which can reduce compliance risk and extend OS support windows at a Marketplace-managed cost; no forced decision, but relevant context for Ubuntu fleet licensing strategy.
