Bitnami, the leaders in application packaging, and Automattic, the experts behind WordPress, have teamed up to offer this official WordPress image on AWS Marketplace.

WordPress Multisite is ideal for organizations such as universities, corporations, and agencies that need to enable many people to host and manage their own websites while giving overall control to a central administrator. These websites can all have unique domain names and layouts while sharing assets such as themes and plugins.

For content authors, the Jetpack plugin (enabled by default) offers access to additional professional themes, performance improvements, scanning, site activity, and marketing tools. Other popular plugins like Akismet, All in One SEO Pack, WP Mail and Google Analytics for WordPress also come pre-installed. Audio feeds can be generated with the pre-installed Amazon Polly plugin.

For developers, this image includes the latest version of WordPress, PHP, Apache, and MySQL. It is secure by default, as all ports except HTTP, HTTPS, and SSH ports are closed. HTTP/2 and Let's Encrypt auto-configuration are supported. Caching functionality is included to improve performance.

Bitnami certifies that its images are secure, up-to-date, and packaged using industry best practices. We continuously monitor all components and libraries for vulnerabilities, outdated components, and application updates.
