Operating systems
Plakar is built on 2 distributions
Each image follows its distribution's own provisioning model, package manager and security tooling — not one build relabelled several times.
Ubuntu
LTS and interim releases, Minimal and Pro variants, built to Canonical's cloud-image conventions.
Debian
Stable and oldstable, with backports where a workload needs a newer runtime than the release ships.
How it's built
How WIEWAVE builds and maintains this image
The same four steps behind every offer we've published, including the hardening and CIS Benchmark checks every build goes through.
- 01
Scoped
The distribution, licensing model and target marketplaces are agreed before anything is built.
- 02
Built & hardened as code
Packer templates, Ansible provisioning and a pinned package set — then hardened, scanned and checked against the CIS Benchmark for its distribution.
- 03
Certified & published
Taken through each cloud's own certification pipeline before it goes live on the marketplace.
- 04
Maintained
Rebuilt on the upstream security cadence and re-published, with old versions retired without breaking deployments.
FAQ
Plakar: common questions
If yours isn't here, ask our marketplace team directly.
Plakar is available on Azure Marketplace. It isn't listed on AWS Marketplace or Google Cloud Marketplace yet — if you need it there, we can build and publish it as a public listing or a private offer.
The Plakar image is built on Ubuntu and Debian. Each build follows that distribution's own provisioning model, package manager and security tooling, so it behaves correctly once it's deployed.
WIEWAVE rebuilds its marketplace images on the upstream security cadence, re-scans and re-certifies them, and retires old versions in an order that doesn't break customers mid-deployment.
Pricing is shown on each marketplace listing and billed through your existing cloud account. If you need negotiated terms or a listing scoped to your organisation only, we can publish Plakar to you as a private offer.
Yes. We can build a customised Plakar image — on a different distribution, with a hardened baseline or your own configuration preinstalled — and publish it to the marketplace you need. Email cloud@wiewave.com with what you need.
