Canonical’s Ubuntu Cloud archive allows users the ability to install newer releases of OpenStack on an Ubuntu Server (starting with 12.04) as they become available up through the next Ubuntu LTS release. Bug processing and patch contributions will follow standard Ubuntu practice and policy where applicable. Canonical commits to maintaining and supporting new OpenStack releases for Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS in the Ubuntu Cloud archive until 3 months after the next LTS is released. For Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS, Canonical stopped introducing new releases of OpenStack with the version shipped in the Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS release. They will maintain and support this last updated release of OpenStack in the Ubuntu Cloud archive for 3 years, i.e. until the end of the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS lifecycle. Starting with the Ubuntu Server 14.10 Development release, newer releases of Openstack will be available via Cloud archive for the Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS release. Canonical’s Ubuntu Cloud Archive (UCA) gives users the ability to install newer releases of !OpenStack on an Ubuntu LTS release (only) as they become available up through to the next Ubuntu LTS release. Bug processing and patch contributions will follow standard Ubuntu practice and policy where applicable.

In order to allow for relatively easy upgrades, and still adhere to Ubuntu processes and policy, Canonical elected to have archive.canonical.com be the home of the Ubuntu Cloud archive. They will enable update paths for each OpenStack release. In order to allow for relatively easy upgrades, and still adhere to Ubuntu processes and policy, Canonical elected to have
[[http://ubuntu-cloud.archive.canonical.com | ubuntu-cloud.archive.canonical.com]] be the home of the cloud archive. Update paths will exist for each !OpenStack release. For example, enabling "bionic-ussuri" will provide access to all !OpenStack Ussuri packages built for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (binary and source), any updated dependencies required, and bug/security fixes published after release.

 * e.g. Enabling “precise-folsom” in the archive will provide access to all OpenStack Folsom packages built for Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS (binary and source), any updated dependencies required, and bug/security fixes made after release. Packages go through various stages as they make their way towards a publicly available UCA release. See the [[OpenStack/VersionTracking | Version Tracking]] page for details.

As of now, Canonical has no plans to build or host OpenStack packages for non-LTS releases of Ubuntu Server in the Ubuntu Cloud archive. The chart below explains the options.

This will ensure that bugs are raised against the cloud-archive project on Launchpad. This will ensure that bugs are raised against the [[https://launchpad.net/cloud-archive | cloud-archive]] project on Launchpad.

== Using the UCA ==

The release schedule of !OpenStack and Ubuntu are generally synchronised: a new !OpenStack release becomes available in the UCA every six months and coincides with each release of Ubuntu. As !OpenStack releases are added to the UCA and as releases fall out of support this section will be updated.

A UCA !OpenStack release is enabled on a host with the `add-apt-repository` command.

'''Important''': It is good practice to run `sudo apt update` both before and after the `add-apt-repository` command.

=== Ubuntu 20.04 LTS ===

On 20.04, !OpenStack Victoria and !OpenStack X are supported for 18 months each, and !OpenStack W for 36 months. When 22.04's default !OpenStack version is released it will be added to the UCA with support for 3 years (i.e. until the end of the Ubuntu 20.04 LTS lifecycle).

=== Ubuntu 18.04 LTS ===

On 18.04, !OpenStack Rocky and !OpenStack Train are supported for 18 months each, and !OpenStack Stein for 36 months. When 20.04's default !OpenStack version is released it will be added to the UCA with support for 3 years (i.e. until the end of the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS lifecycle).

The Ubuntu Cloud Archive

Canonical’s Ubuntu Cloud Archive (UCA) gives users the ability to install newer releases of OpenStack on an Ubuntu LTS release (only) as they become available up through to the next Ubuntu LTS release. Bug processing and patch contributions will follow standard Ubuntu practice and policy where applicable.

In order to allow for relatively easy upgrades, and still adhere to Ubuntu processes and policy, Canonical elected to have ubuntu-cloud.archive.canonical.com be the home of the cloud archive. Update paths will exist for each OpenStack release. For example, enabling "bionic-ussuri" will provide access to all OpenStack Ussuri packages built for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (binary and source), any updated dependencies required, and bug/security fixes published after release.

Packages go through various stages as they make their way towards a publicly available UCA release. See the Version Tracking page for details.

Any given UCA OpenStack release can be enabled on exactly one Ubuntu LTS release.
