This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for cloudimg support services.
Overview NGINX Open Source is the high-performance, BSD-licensed web server and reverse proxy that powers a large share of the busiest sites on the internet. This image delivers NGINX fully installed and configured from the official nginx.org APT repository, so a production grade web server and reverse proxy is running within minutes of launch. The mainline stable line is provided, the line nginx.org recommends for new deployments.
What Is Included NGINX Open Source from the official nginx.org repository (mainline 1.27.x at build time). The web server is the only workload on the image: there is no bundled application runtime and no database, so the platform stays lean, predictable and easy to reason about. A cloudimg default landing page is served on first boot so you can confirm the server is healthy before you deploy your own site. The stub_status monitoring endpoint is enabled at /nginx_status, restricted to localhost by default for safety. A documented reverse-proxy starter configuration ships at /etc/nginx/conf.d/sample.conf.disabled, ready to be renamed, edited and reloaded.
Web Content On Its Own Volume Customer web content lives on a dedicated, independently resizable storage volume mounted at /var/www, with the document root at /var/www/html. Site files are kept separate from the operating system disk, so content can be grown, snapshotted and backed up on its own schedule.
Secure By Default The stub_status monitoring endpoint is restricted to the instance itself, the secure default, so nothing sensitive is exposed until you choose to open it. A first boot service writes a short server information file for the administrator. No shared or default application credentials ship in the image; NGINX itself is unauthenticated.
Ready To Use The web server, document root, monitoring endpoint and reverse-proxy starter are all configured. Browse to the instance address to confirm the default page, then replace it with your own site or enable the reverse-proxy configuration, configure additional virtual hosts and enable HTTPS as described in the user guide.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Additional details
Usage instructions
Connect via SSH on port 22 as the default login user for your operating system variant (the user guide lists it per variant). NGINX serves on port 80. Browse to http://<instance-public-ip>/ to confirm the default landing page. Place your website files in /var/www/html on the dedicated content volume. To enable the included reverse-proxy starter, rename /etc/nginx/conf.d/sample.conf.disabled to sample.conf, edit the upstream address, run nginx -t and then systemctl reload nginx. The stub_status endpoint /nginx_status is restricted to the instance itself by default; the user guide explains how to open it to a trusted network. To enable HTTPS, follow the Let's Encrypt section of the user guide.
