ICanonical, inkampani yonjiniyela we-Ubuntu, ilungiselela ukunikela esidlangalaleni ngamasheya. Uhlela ukuthuthukisa emkhakheni we-cloud computing.
/isithombe (PD)— ku-ISS
Izingxoxo ezimayelana ne-IPO yeCanonical bezilokhu ziqhubeka kusukela ngo-2015, lapho umsunguli wenkampani u-Mark Shuttleworth ememezela ukunikezwa okungenzeka komphakathi kwamasheya. Inhloso ye-IPO ukuqoqa izimali ezizosiza iCanonical ukuthuthukisa imikhiqizo yamafu kanye nezinhlelo ze-IoT zebhizinisi.
Isibonelo, inkampani ihlela ukunaka kakhulu ubuchwepheshe bokufakwa kweziqukathi be-LXD kanye ne-Ubuntu Core OS yamagajethi e-IoT. Lokhu kukhethwa kwesiqondiso sokuthuthukiswa kunqunywa imodeli yebhizinisi yenkampani. ICanonical ayiwathengisi amalayisense futhi yenza imali ngezinsizakalo ze-B2B.
ICanonical yaqala ukulungiselela i-IPO ngo-2017. Ukuze ithandeke kakhulu kubatshalizimali, inkampani yayeka ukwenza imikhiqizo engenzi nzuzo - igobolondo ledeskithophu ye-Unity kanye ne-Ubuntu Phone OS ephathekayo. ICanonical iphinde ihlose ukukhulisa imali engenayo yonyaka isuka ku-$110 million iye ku-$200. Ngakho-ke, inkampani manje izama ukuheha amakhasimende ezinkampani ezengeziwe. Ngale njongo, kwethulwa iphakethe elisha lezinsizakalo - Ubuntu Advantage for Infrastructure.
I-Canonical ayidingi imali ehlukile yokugcina izingxenye zengqalasizinda ngokusekelwe kubuchwepheshe obuhlukahlukene - i-OpenStack, i-Ceph, i-Kubernetes ne-Linux. Izindleko zezinsizakalo zibalwa ngokusekelwe enanini lamaseva noma imishini ebonakalayo, futhi iphakheji ihlanganisa ukusekelwa kwezobuchwepheshe nezomthetho. Ngokwezibalo zeCanonical, le ndlela izosiza amakhasimende abo onge imali.
Esinye isinyathelo sokuheha amakhasimende kwaba ukunwetshwa kwesikhathi sokwesekwa kwe-Ubuntu sisuka eminyakeni emihlanu kuya kweyishumi. Ngokuka-Mark Shuttleworth, umjikelezo wokuphila wesistimu ende yokusebenza ubalulekile ezikhungweni zezezimali kanye nezokuxhumana, okuthi, uma kuqhathaniswa nezinye izinkampani, mancane amathuba okuba zithuthukele ezinguqulweni ezintsha ze-OS nezinsizakalo ze-IT.
Izenzo zeCanonical zisize ekwenzeni Ubuntu ukuthi budume kakhulu phakathi kwezinhlangano “ezilondolozayo” futhi zaqinisa isikhundla senkampani kanjiniyela emakethe yezixazululo zamafu. Imizamo yenkampani ingase ibe nezithelo maduze. Kungenzeka ukuthi iCanonical izovela esidlangalaleni ekuqaleni kuka-2020.
Yini ekhona emakethe?
Abahlaziyi , ukuthi ngokushintshela esimweni somphakathi, iCanonical izokwazi ukuba imbangi egcwele kuRed Hat. Okwakamuva kuthuthukise futhi kwasebenzisa imigomo yokwenza imali ngobuchwepheshe bemithombo evulekile, obusetshenziswa manje iCanonical.
Sekuyisikhathi eside, ezinye izinkampani ezinemodeli yebhizinisi efanayo azikwazanga ukukhula zifinyelele kusayizi we-Red Hat. Ngokwesilinganiso, ingaphambili kakhulu kuneCanonical - inzuzo yonyaka yeRed Hat iyodwa konke kuvela enkampanini yokuthuthukisa Ubuntu. Kodwa-ke, ochwepheshe bakholelwa ukuthi izimali ezivela ku-IPO zizosiza i-Canonical ikhule ifike kusayizi wesimbangi sayo.
Ukuba umthuthukisi we-Ubuntu kunenzuzo kune-Red Hat. ICanonical yinkampani ezimele enikeza amakhasimende ebhizinisi amandla okukhetha noma iyiphi indawo yamafu ukuze athumele izinhlelo zokusebenza. I-Red Hat izoba yingxenye ye-IBM maduze. Nakuba i-IT giant ithembisa ukugcina ukuzimela kwenkampani engaphansi, kungenzeka ukuthi i-Red Hat izothuthukisa ifu lomphakathi le-IBM.

I-IPO kulindeleke futhi ukuthi isize iCanonical ithole isisekelo ku-IoT kanye nezimakethe zamakhompiyutha. Le nkampani ithuthukisa imikhiqizo emisha esekelwe ku-Ubuntu ezosiza ukuhlanganisa amadivaysi asemaphethelweni anezindawo zamafu zibe uhlelo olulodwa lwe-hybrid. Nakuba lesi siqondiso singalethi inzuzo kuCanonical, nokho, i-Shuttleworth okuthembisayo ngekusasa lenkampani. Izimali ezivela ku-IPO zizosiza ukuthuthukisa ubuchwepheshe be-IoT - ICanonical izokwazi ukwaba izinsiza ezengeziwe ekuthuthukisweni kwemikhiqizo esemaphethelweni.
Ngubani omunye oya emphakathini?
Ngo-April 2018, i-Pivotal yabeka ingxenye yamasheya ayo esitokofeleni. Uthuthukisa inkundla ye-Cloud Foundry yokuthumela nokuqapha izinhlelo zokusebenza ezindaweni zamafu zomphakathi nezizimele. Iningi le-Pivotal liphethwe ngu-Dell: isiqhwaga se-IT siphethe amasheya angu-67% enkampani futhi sinendima ebalulekile ekuthathweni kwezinqumo.
Umnikelo womphakathi wawuhloselwe ukusiza i-Pivotal ukuthi ikhulise ubukhona bayo emakethe yezinsizakalo zamafu. Inkampani sebenzisa imali etholakalayo ekwakheni imikhiqizo emisha kanye nokuheha izinkampani ezinkulu emhlabeni njengamakhasimende. Obekulindelwe yi-Pivotal kwathethelelwa - ngemva kokudayisa amasheya, yakwazi ukukhulisa imali engenayo kanye nenani lamakhasimende ezinkampani.
Enye i-IPO emakethe kufanele yenzeke esikhathini esizayo esiseduze. Ngo-Ephreli kulo nyaka, i-Fastly, isiqalo esinikeza inkundla yekhompiyutha enqenqemeni kanye nesixazululo sokulinganisa umthwalo wezikhungo zedatha, esifayelwe umnikelo womphakathi. Inkampani izosebenzisa izimali ezivela ku-IPO ukukhuthaza ukusebenza kwekhompyutha emakethe. Uthemba ngokushesha ukuthi utshalomali luzoyisiza ibe umdlali ovelele endaweni yesevisi yesikhungo sedatha.
Yini elandelayo
Ngu (isihloko esingaphansi kwe-paywall) I-Wall Street Journal, amasheya ezinhlangano zobuchwepheshe ze-B2B angase athandeke kakhulu kunezibambiso emkhakheni we-B2C IT. Ngakho-ke, ama-IPO esigabeni se-B2B ngokuvamile adonsela ukunaka kwabatshalizimali abazimisele.
Lo mkhuba uyasebenza nasembonini ye-cloud computing, yingakho ama-IPO ezinkampani ezifana neCanonical enethuba eliphezulu lokuphumelela. Inzuzo evela ekuthengisweni kwamasheya izosiza imboni yamafu ukuthi ithuthukise kakhulu ubuchwepheshe lapho manje kunesidingo esikhethekile phakathi kwamakhasimende ezinkampani, - и ngekhompyutha enqenqemeni.
