Benefits of running a JumpBox

Deploying an application as a JumpBox provides a dramatically-reduced path to getting started with the software. Aside from installation benefits it yields other advantages such as portability across computing environments and simplified ongoing maintenance of the application. Here are a few of the benefits to using a JumpBox:
  • Self-contained deployment means easy to move or delete - it won't scatter files all over your operating system.
  • New versions of the JumpBox contain updates to each component in the software stack so there's no patching web servers, application servers, databases, dependencies, etc.
  • A web-based administration console simplifies the management of your application including SSL certs, email relaying, SSH, backups and more.
  • Once you know how to install a JumpBox you can deploy any of 50+ other JumpBoxes and take advantage of a growing library of conveniently-packaged Open Source software.
This JumpBox is free so there's no risk in trying it out. Download it today and experience for yourself a whole new way of working with server software.

    Utilizing a free CMS how is it that this author appears to be cashing in on using Joomla as a bases to sell when the whole purpose is to use Joomla? Or any of the other FREE scripts that are under the GNU.

    What's the point of all of this? Yes, I had Joomla running in 2 seconds on my local machine, but now what. Am I missing something here? Why would I run a cms on a local machine, with no ftp or mysql access?
    Usualy your hosting provider sets up your database on a amp-server and with the beauty of Joomla you have your cms up and running in 15 minutes. (Uploading the files is the most time consuming)
