CloudPanel

CloudPanel is a free control panel for managing a server. It's designed for developers, agencies, and IT administrators who need a simple interface for modern web applications. You can run static sites, PHP, Node.js, and Python applications in fully isolated environments. It's free.

The panel focuses on getting projects running quickly. A site wizard helps you create a new site, guiding you through the configuration for your specific application type. You can run multiple PHP versions and switch between them with a single click. CloudPanel is available for Debian and Ubuntu on both Intel x86 and ARM processors, and it can be launched on most major cloud providers.

Security is a core part of its design. It includes a range of tools to protect your server and applications.

• Site Isolation: Each site runs in its own isolated system environment, preventing a vulnerability in one from affecting others.
• Firewall: A user-friendly interface lets you manage UFW firewall rules to allow or deny traffic.
• IP & Bot Blocker: Block traffic from unwanted IP addresses, domains, or known malicious bots.
• Access Control: Restrict who can log into the panel by IP address and protect sites in development with Basic Authentication.
• Two-Factor Authentication: Add an extra security layer to your CloudPanel login.
• Free SSL: Install and automatically renew Let’s Encrypt certificates for your domains.
• Cloudflare Integration: Route your traffic through Cloudflare to use its DNS, WAF, and DDoS protection services.

CloudPanel is built for performance with a lightweight stack that includes NGINX, PHP-FPM, Redis, and MySQL. It's optimized for speed out of the box and has low resource requirements, needing only a single-core server with 2GB of memory to run.
