Searching AWS marketplace I see that for Ubuntu 18, there are:
- Ubuntu Pro FIPS 18.04 LTS (offered by Canonical Group Ltd)
- Ubuntu Pro 18.04 LTS (offered by Amazon Web Services)
But for Ubuntu 20.04, a "Pro FIPS" variety does not exist, only Ubuntu Pro 20.04 LTS.
This is confusing from a user perspective.
- Why are there two separate AMIs if Ubuntu Pro is supposed to include the fips modules enabled through UA in the first place?
- Why can `fips` or `fips-updates` not be enabled using the Ubuntu Pro 20.04 LTS image?
- Why is an Ubuntu Pro FIPS 20.04 LTS missing entirely?
