Overview
This listing is a collection of separate, one per product and version, chosen from the Software version dropdown at launch.
Why the cloudimg image
This image arrives installed, configured and hardened, so there is no manual setup before you can use it. It is built on a patched base, runs with credentials generated uniquely for your instance on first boot, and passes an automated health check before every release. Every deployment is backed by 24/7 support from cloudimg engineers.
Key features
- No default login: administrator, ingest and shared-key credentials are generated uniquely on each instance's first boot and stored root-only
- Web consoles and HTTP ingest APIs use HTTPS with a per-instance certificate; syslog and forward ports stay closed in the security group until you open them
- OpenSearch with Fluent Bit, Grafana Loki, OpenObserve, VictoriaLogs, Parseable, Fluentd, Vector, rsyslog and more: pick one as the software version at launch
Description
This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for security hardening, secure-by-default configuration and per-instance setup.
What cloudimg adds to every version
- Every image is built by cloudimg on a fully patched base with the latest security updates applied at build time.
- Administrator, ingest and shared-key credentials are generated uniquely on the first boot of each instance, so no default login exists and no two instances share a secret.
