Microsoft Will Integrate Ubuntu Linux In Windows 10
Microsoft is very close to integrating Ubuntu within its computer operating system, Microsoft Windows 10. On stage at Build Developer Conference 2016, Microsoft’s Kevin Gallo said, “The Bash shell is coming to Windows. Yes, the real Bash is coming to Windows; this is not a VM. These are not cross-compiled tools. This is native,” he also added. “We’ve partnered with Canonical to offer this great experience, which you’ll be able to download right from the Windows Store.” According to the agreement with Canonical, it will allow Windows 10 users soon to run Ubuntu and Windows 10 simultaneously on their computers, not as a virtualized operating system. However, as a part of the native libraries of Windows 10, which is not expected to be available for users with the Unity interface since a change would be more focused on developers. The interesting thing is the integration is the ability to use tools such as BASH Shell and Terminal desktop operating system Ubuntu, beyond user functions by passing own system interface. Thus, keeping intact the own interface in Microsoft Windows 10, without the possibility of loading the elements of Ubuntu, would mean the complete integration of Linux within Windows 10 in addition to the hand of one of the most recognized distributions. According to this movement, on the other hand, Microsoft would strongly support developing its cloud computing tools. It would have the support of a truly broad community to work on software solutions for its operating system. And what is not clear at this point is whether Ubuntu would remain available independently, as before it was, or whether this integration would end installable distributions of Ubuntu.
