LAMP Stack AMI with Apache, MariaDB and PHP, built for Linux platforms with the latest OS patches and a secured database configuration that can be used for running for PHP production workloads. Kurian provides this product across major Linux distributions including Ubuntu, Debian, Oracle Linux, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, Amazon Linux, Fedora, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
LAMP Stack provides Apache, MariaDB and PHP pre-installed and configured on a Linux AMI to support deployment of PHP-based web applications. The operating system is updated with the latest patches to ensure stability and security.
MariaDB is secured by running mysql_secure_installation, and Apache and PHP are configured following standard installation procedures. This approach allows administrators to easily customize and tune the stack using the official documentation for each component. An EC2 instance launched from this AMI is ready to use with minimal or no additional configuration, enabling rapid deployment of PHP applications and web services.
Kurian provides multiple versions of this product on all popular Linux platforms such as Ubuntu, Debian, Oracle Linux, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, Amazon Linux, Fedora Linux and Red Hat Enterprise Linux. For the supported versions of the product, distributions, and versions of the Linux platform, look up the Version under the Usage Information section of this page. For any combination of versions of product and OS that are not listed on the marketplace, custom AMI can be built, please contact us.
Kurian has released preconfigured software applications such as CMS platforms, Jenkins, databases, the LAMP stack, Ansible, popular tools in the DevOps toolchain, and monitoring applications widely used by system administrators and DevOps engineers. For selected Linux distributions, hardened images based on industry standard benchmarks are also available. Kurian AMIs are built following official installation procedures, so you do not need to learn any custom methods if additional configurations are required.

This software is free to use, so you pay nothing for the LAMP stack itself. Your only cost comes from the AWS EC2 instance you choose to run it on, billed per hour. Each dimension is a different EC2 instance type, listed by size and family. Smaller instances like t2.micro suit light workloads, while larger types like x1e.32xlarge handle heavier demands. Pricing scales with the compute, memory, and storage capacity of the instance you pick. You select one instance type to match your workload and run the pre-configured stack on it.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Am I charged for the software when my EC2 instance is stopped?
The LAMP stack software is free, so it never adds a charge whether running or stopped. Your EC2 costs apply per hour only while the instance runs. A stopped instance stops accruing compute charges, though AWS may still bill for attached storage separately.
What does one hourly unit represent for a dimension like m5.large or x1e.32xlarge?
Each dimension is one AWS EC2 instance type, billed per running hour. The unit maps to a single running instance with a fixed amount of virtual CPU, memory, and storage. Larger families and sizes carry higher hourly rates. You pick one type per node you launch.
Does the free software include support for configuring or deploying my application?
The stack ships with Apache, MariaDB, and PHP pre-installed and a secured MariaDB. Application setup, database creation, and permissions are your responsibility. The vendor offers help configuring and deploying applications on request, arranged separately and not part of the free listing.
