    Overview

    Caddy 2.10.2 on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS with Free Maintenance Support by PCloudhosting

    Caddy on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, with maintenance support from PCloudhosting, is available on the AWS Cloud Marketplace as a repackaged open-source offering (seller support may include extra charges depending on the listing). Caddy is a modern web server and reverse proxy that is simple to run and secure by default. A key advantage is automatic HTTPS, where Caddy can request and renew TLS certificates automatically, so there is no need to manage certificates manually.

    This AWS Marketplace AMI provides a ready-to-run Caddy setup on Amazon EC2, so you can launch quickly without spending time on installation, server configuration, or dependency setup.

    Key Technical Highlights

    • Caddy 2.10.2 running on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
    • Automatic HTTPS by default (TLS certificates obtained and renewed automatically)
    • Simple configuration using Caddyfile (or JSON if needed)
    • Works as a web server and reverse proxy
    • Supports modern protocols: HTTP/2 enabled, HTTP/3 (QUIC) supported (config dependent)
    • Built-in reverse proxy and load balancing options
    • Modular architecture with plugins for extended features
    • Lightweight footprint (efficient CPU and memory usage)
    • Supports security controls like authentication and request handling rules (config dependent)
