[ Thanks to Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols for this link. ]

"In an e-mail interview, Ken Drachnik, Canonical's Landscape business manager said "Landscape simplifies system management tasks for users who run Ubuntu on physical or virtual servers in-house or some or all of their Ubuntu servers on the Amazon EC2 cloud. It enables users to manage all instances from the same application."

"In short, Landscape is more proof that Canonical wants Ubuntu to not just be your desktop Linux, but a serious contender for your servers as well."
