This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for cloudimg support services.
ChirpStack is the leading open source LoRaWAN Network Server. It provides the complete LoRaWAN stack in a single server: the network server and application server, multi-tenant device and gateway management, device profiles, adaptive data rate, downlink queueing, MQTT and HTTP integrations, firmware-update-over-the-air (FUOTA) and a full gRPC and gRPC-web API, all driven from a clean, modern web console. ChirpStack is the control plane your LoRa gateways and sensors connect to. The current release available is ChirpStack 4.19.
This image delivers ChirpStack fully installed and reverse-proxied behind nginx over HTTPS, so a complete LoRaWAN network server is operational within minutes of launch, with no manual PostgreSQL, Redis, MQTT, TLS or ChirpStack configuration. The ChirpStack server binds to loopback and is fronted by nginx TLS; PostgreSQL runs on a dedicated, independently resizable storage volume; Redis runs as a managed system service; the Mosquitto MQTT broker is bundled and bound to loopback; and a ChirpStack Gateway Bridge is included so real LoRa gateways using the Semtech UDP packet-forwarder or BasicStation can connect on UDP port 1700.
Secure by default: no administrator account and no shared password ship in the image. On first boot the instance address is configured automatically, a fresh database password, API and JWT signing secret and TLS certificate are generated, and a unique administrator password is created and written to a root-only file on the instance. This eliminates the well-known ChirpStack default admin login exposure common in manual installations, and no two deployments ever share a secret.
The image is the LoRaWAN network and application server, not the radio hardware: a working LoRaWAN deployment also needs your own LoRa gateways pointed at this server.
Our engineers provide 24/7 support for deployment, upgrades, TLS termination with your own domain and certificate, gateway onboarding, MQTT exposure and integration, LoRaWAN region configuration and scaling.

64-bit (x86) Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
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.
Version release notes
Initial release of the ChirpStack LoRaWAN Network Server AMI.
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; on Ubuntu it is 'ubuntu'). Retrieve the generated administrator password with: sudo cat /root/chirpstack-credentials.txt. Browse to https://<instance-public-ip>/ (the console is served over HTTPS with a per-instance self-signed certificate; accept the browser warning or install the certificate) and sign in as user 'admin' with that password. The health endpoint https://<instance-public-ip>/healthz returns 200 when healthy. ChirpStack v4 exposes a gRPC and gRPC-web API on 127.0.0.1:8080; exercise it locally with the baked grpcurl. Real LoRa gateways connect to the ChirpStack Gateway Bridge on UDP port 1700 (Semtech packet-forwarder or BasicStation). Services are managed with systemctl (postgresql, redis-server, mosquitto, chirpstack, chirpstack-gateway-bridge, nginx). To use your own domain and a trusted certificate, follow the TLS section of the user guide.
