Overview
lighttpd is a fast, event driven web server with a very small memory footprint, used to serve static sites and assets and to front application back ends. It serves HTTPS directly through its mod_openssl TLS engine, with a simple, readable configuration file and no database or admin console.
Why the cloudimg image
cloudimg ships lighttpd hardened, fully patched and preconfigured so it is serving over HTTPS the moment it boots. A unique self signed certificate is generated for each VM at first boot, HTTP is permanently redirected to HTTPS, directory listing is disabled and the version token is suppressed. Backed by 24/7 support.
Common uses
- Static website and asset hosting
- Lightweight HTTPS front end
- Origin server for applications
