SeedDMS, open source document management, ready to sign in the moment it boots.
SeedDMS is a mature, web based open source Document Management System. Organise files into a browsable folder tree with full version history, control who can see and edit each folder or document with per object access control lists, run documents through review and approval workflows, tag them with categories and attributes, and find them again with full text search. It also exposes a WebDAV endpoint and a REST API.
It suits businesses, engineering and quality teams, and any organisation that needs a self hosted, access controlled document repository they fully control, with a clean web interface and no per seat SaaS fees.
cloudimg delivers SeedDMS hardened, fully patched and preconfigured so the sign in page is working the moment it boots. The well known default administrator login is never shipped: a unique administrator account and a unique database password are generated on first boot, the schema is already imported and the install wizard is already complete and locked. Document content is stored in a dedicated directory kept separate from both the web root and the application code, and every deployment is paired with a step by step deploy guide and backed by 24/7 support. cloudimg is not affiliated with the SeedDMS project.

SeedDMS is a mature, enterprise ready open source Document Management System trusted by organisations worldwide to store, version, and control access to their documents. This image delivers SeedDMS 6 fully installed, configured, and security hardened on a production ready stack, so your team has a complete document management platform running within minutes of launch, eliminating hours of manual dependency installation, web server configuration, and database setup that a self managed deployment requires.
What sets this listing apart from a self managed deployment or a free community image: a dedicated data volume keeps your documents and the database separate from the web root and the application code, so files are never web reachable, survive an application upgrade, and can be resized independently of the operating system disk; a one shot first boot service generates unique MariaDB and SeedDMS administrator passwords for every instance, so no shared or default passwords ever ship, and the well known SeedDMS default administrator login is never shipped; the install wizard is pre completed and locked, eliminating dozens of manual configuration steps; and 24/7 expert support from cloudimg covers SeedDMS specific guidance that generic support cannot provide.
Who this is for: this image is built for IT administrators, compliance officers, and operations teams who need a controlled document repository without dedicating engineering time to infrastructure. Quality management teams route engineering change orders and standard operating procedures through multi stage review and approval workflows with full version history. Legal and contracts teams version agreements across multiple reviewers with granular access control lists, so only authorised personnel see sensitive documents. Project teams organise deliverables into folder hierarchies with category tagging and full text search for rapid retrieval.
Application stack: SeedDMS 6 latest stable release, PHP 8.3 with OPcache and all required extensions, the nginx web server, and the MariaDB database engine, with the database data directory and the document content store both held on the dedicated data volume.
On the first boot of your instance, a one shot service generates a fresh MariaDB password and a fresh SeedDMS administrator password unique to that instance and writes them to a root only file. The application, web server, and database are all configured and the install wizard is already completed and locked. Browse to the instance address and sign in to manage folders, documents, versions, access control lists, review and approval workflows, categories, and full text search. SeedDMS serves on whatever hostname or IP address you reach it on.
