Difference versions ubuntu - Sienna1790 - 10-21-2021
Hello, I have a question about two Ubuntu images. Does anyone know what the difference is between bionic-server-cloudimg-amd64 and ubuntu-18.04.4-server-amd64?

The first is for deploying on cloud instances, and the second is for deploying on your own physical hardware on your own premises.
Furthermore, Ubuntu Cloud Images are official Ubuntu images that have been modified by Canonical to run on public clouds that offer Ubuntu Certified Images, Openstack, LXD, and other services.
Server Images can be installed directly on a physical server or a hypervisor.
