Overview

Openfire is an open source real time collaboration server that implements the XMPP protocol for instant messaging, presence, and multi user group chat. Organisations use it to run private, self hosted messaging across desktop and mobile clients, administered through a friendly web console.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg delivers Openfire preconfigured and hardened so the messaging server and TLS fronted admin console are reachable straight after boot. The first run setup wizard is pre-completed, a unique admin credential is generated on first boot with no default login, the server database lives on a dedicated data volume, a step by step deploy guide is included, and 24/7 support is included.
