Caddy preinstalled for AWS. The open source web server and reverse proxy with automatic HTTPS, serving on first boot on Ubuntu 24.04. Backed by 24/7 cloudimg support.
## Caddy Web Server by cloudimg
Caddy is the open source web server and reverse proxy that makes HTTPS automatic. This Amazon Machine Image delivers Caddy fully installed and configured, so a working web server is up and serving within minutes of launch. The release available is the maintained Caddy 2 line.
## Automatic HTTPS
Caddy provisions and renews TLS certificates automatically. Point a DNS record at the instance, add your domain to the configuration file, reload the service, and Caddy obtains a publicly trusted certificate on the first request and keeps it renewed. There is no separate certificate client to install or schedule.
## Lean And Predictable
The web server is the only workload on this image. Configuration is a single readable file, and the document root lives on a dedicated, independently resizable volume so site storage can grow without touching the operating system disk.
## Ready To Use
The Caddy service and the default site are configured and the service starts on boot. Browse to the instance address to confirm the server is online, then edit the configuration file to host your own website or define reverse proxy rules.
