Overview

AureusERP is a comprehensive open source Enterprise Resource Planning solution for small and medium enterprises and larger organisations. Built on the Laravel framework and the FilamentPHP admin panel, it brings accounting, invoicing, inventory, purchases, sales, human resources, recruitment, CRM and project management together in one place, with a modular plugin system so you enable only the features your business needs.

It suits businesses that want to self host a single, extensible platform to run their day to day operations, and developers who want a Laravel native ERP they can customise and extend with their own plugins.

Why the cloudimg image

An ERP holds a business's most sensitive records, so cloudimg makes AureusERP secure by default. Every instance generates its own secrets on first boot and writes them to a root only file: a fresh application key, a fresh database password and a fresh administrator email and password, so no two instances share a credential and none is baked into the image. There is no default administrator login, the well known install time account is neutralised before the image is captured, and the admin panel is served over HTTPS by nginx with a self signed certificate regenerated per instance. The base is fully patched with unattended security upgrades enabled, and every deployment is paired with a step by step deploy guide and backed by 24/7 cloudimg support.

Common uses

  • Running accounting, inventory, sales and purchasing for a small or medium business
  • A self hosted CRM, HR and project management suite inside your own cloud account
  • A Laravel native ERP foundation to extend with custom plugins and workflows

Key features

  • Complete ERP running in minutes, not hours. This pre-configured AMI delivers accounting, inventory, CRM, sales, purchases, HR and project management on a production-ready stack of PHP 8.3, nginx and MariaDB - no manual Laravel setup, dependency installation or asset compilation required. The database and application code live on separate, independently-resizable EBS volumes for straightforward scaling and tier-level snapshots.
  • Secure by default with zero shared credentials. Every instance generates its own unique application key, database password and administrator login on first boot - stored in a root-only file with no default admin account. The admin panel is served over HTTPS with a per-instance self-signed certificate, and MariaDB is bound to loopback only, eliminating the shared-password risk found in competing images.
  • 24/7 expert support from cloudimg with one-hour critical response. Engineers assist with deployment, upgrades, module configuration, database and storage administration, performance tuning and TLS certificate setup via email and live chat. The dedicated EBS storage layout means your data volume can be independently backed up, resized or snapshotted without downtime to the application tier.

Description

This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for cloudimg support services.

Overview

AureusERP is a comprehensive open source, self-hosted Enterprise Resource Planning platform that consolidates accounting, invoicing, inventory, purchases, sales, CRM, human resources, recruitment and project management into a single modular admin panel. Built on the Laravel framework and the FilamentPHP admin panel with a plugin architecture, you enable only the modules your organisation needs and extend it with your own. All operational and financial data stays private on infrastructure you control - no third-party SaaS platform ever holds your records.

This AMI delivers AureusERP fully installed, migrated and seeded so a complete ERP is running within minutes of launch - eliminating the hours of manual Laravel, PHP, nginx, database and asset-build setup a from-source deployment requires.

Why This AMI Instead of Manual Installation

Deploying AureusERP by hand means installing a precise PHP extension set, configuring nginx and PHP-FPM, provisioning MariaDB, running composer install, executing the installer to migrate the schema and generate roles and permissions, and compiling front-end assets with Node. This image performs all of that at build time. Unlike Docker-based approaches that require container orchestration knowledge, this AMI boots as a self-contained appliance with the database, application server and web tier already wired together. The MariaDB datadir and the application code each live on their own dedicated, independently-resizable EBS volume for straightforward scaling and tier-level snapshots.

Application Stack

  • PHP 8.3 with OPcache and every extension Laravel and Filament require
  • nginx serving the Laravel public document root over HTTPS on port 443, with port 80 redirecting to TLS
  • MariaDB bound to loopback, on a dedicated data volume
  • Application code, configuration, storage and compiled Vite assets on a second dedicated data volume
  • Database schema migrated and seeded, with Filament Shield roles and permissions generated, at build time

Modular ERP Feature Set

AureusERP is organised as installable plugins so the platform grows with your business:

  • Accounting and invoicing - journals, chart of accounts and customer invoices
  • Inventory and product catalogue - stock levels, warehouses and product variants
  • Purchases and supplier management - purchase orders and vendor relationships
  • Sales and CRM - pipeline management, quotations and customer records
  • Human resources and recruitment - employee records, leave and hiring workflows
  • Project management - tasks, timelines and team collaboration
  • A Laravel-native plugin system for building your own modules and workflows

Secure First Boot

On first boot, a one-shot service generates a fresh application encryption key, a fresh database password and a fresh administrator email and password, all unique to that instance, and writes them to a root-only file. There is no default administrator login - the well-known install-time account is neutralised before the image is captured. The admin panel is served over HTTPS with a self-signed certificate regenerated per instance. Many competing images ship static default passwords; this image eliminates that risk entirely.

Getting Started

Retrieve the generated administrator credentials over SSH, browse to the instance address over HTTPS, and sign in to the Filament admin panel to begin enabling modules and configuring reference data.
