OpenLiteSpeed on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Azure
Application Servers
OpenLiteSpeed, the open source high performance web server with a browser based admin console, ready to serve sites the moment it boots.
Overview
OpenLiteSpeed is the open source edition of the LiteSpeed web server, an event driven HTTP server built for high concurrency and low memory use. It serves static and dynamic content, runs PHP applications through its LSAPI handler, speaks HTTP/2 and HTTP/3, and is administered entirely through a browser based WebAdmin console rather than hand edited configuration files. It is used to host web sites and PHP applications, as a fast origin behind a content delivery network, and as a drop in alternative to heavier web servers.
Why the cloudimg image
cloudimg delivers OpenLiteSpeed fully installed with a supported PHP runtime and the WebAdmin console ready on first boot. The image is secure by default and carries no usable login: the admin console ships with no known password, and on the first boot of every instance a one shot service generates a random WebAdmin password unique to that instance, regenerates the console certificate, and writes the password to a file only the root user can read. 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
- Hosting web sites and PHP applications
- A high performance origin server behind a content delivery network
- A lightweight alternative to Apache or NGINX
