Overview
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 with NGINX and SSL combines the world's most popular content management platform with the high performance and efficiency of the NGINX web server and the security and ease of SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt. This option is excellent for those WordPress sites that need to have a fast response serving content to a high volume of connections.
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, NGINX, 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. Basic service monitoring and log rotation also come pre-configured.
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 We continuously monitor all components and libraries for vulnerabilities, outdated components, and application updates.
