VIVO 1.15 on Ubuntu 24.04
Azure
Applications
VIVO, an open source research networking and scholarship profiling platform that represents researchers, their publications, grants and expertise as linked open data, ready to log in and edit on first boot.
Overview
VIVO is an open source research networking and scholarship profiling platform built on the Vitro semantic web framework. It represents researchers, their publications, grants, courses, affiliations and areas of expertise as linked open data, so profiles connect to one another through shared works, departments and topics rather than sitting in isolation. Institutions use it to build a public directory of scholarly activity, surface expertise for collaboration and reporting, and publish that information as standards based linked data that other systems can consume.
Data lives in an embedded RDF triplestore and is searchable through a built in index, and content can be created and edited through the web interface or ingested through the platform's API. It suits universities, research institutes and libraries that want a self hosted expertise and profiling system on infrastructure they control.
Why the cloudimg image
cloudimg delivers VIVO fully built and installed on Apache Tomcat with an embedded Apache Jena triplestore and an Apache Solr search index, behind an nginx reverse proxy and managed by systemd, so the portal answers within minutes of launch rather than after a long build from source. It is secure by default with no shared credential in the image: VIVO's default administrator password is never baked, the image ships with an empty triplestore and no account, and every instance generates its own administrator password on first boot and writes it to a root only file, proving the default login is rejected before the portal is exposed. The operating system ships fully patched with unattended security updates enabled, and every image includes a step by step deploy guide tested against the exact build and 24/7 cloudimg support.
