REDAXO, the open source PHP content management system that gives you your own templates, modules and media pool instead of a fixed page model, so the editing interface matches the site you are actually building.
REDAXO is an open source PHP content management system developed since 2004 by Yakamara Media. It is deliberately unopinionated: rather than forcing a fixed page model on you, it gives you modules and templates you define yourself. Editors get a clean backend with a structured page tree, a media pool and reusable content blocks, while developers get plain PHP templates, a documented API, a command line console and an addon system. The full core addon set ships in the box: structure and page tree, media pool and media manager, metadata fields, user and role administration, backup and export, the cronjob scheduler, the addon installer and the backend theme. It suits agency work and corporate sites equally because the content model is yours rather than the vendor's.
cloudimg delivers REDAXO fully installed on a hardened, fully patched Apache, PHP 8.3 and MariaDB stack, secure by default: the published image carries no configuration file, no database and no user account, and the web server refuses every request until first boot completes. On first boot each VM mints its own database password and backend administrator password into a root only file and runs the console setup itself, so no credential is ever shared between deployments. The database and the application tree ride on a dedicated, independently resizable data disk, every image is paired with a step by step deployment guide, and every subscription includes 24/7 cloudimg support.
