Matomo Web Analytics on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS by ProvenCloud

Matomo on Azure, ready in minutes. Deploy the virtual machine, open its public IP address in a browser and you are ready to go. There is no installer to run and nothing to configure.

Matomo is an open source web analytics platform. It shows who visits your website, where they come from, which pages they read and which campaigns bring sales, and it keeps every piece of data on your own server. This image gives marketers, agencies and website owners a working Matomo server in minutes, so you can add the tracking code to your site and start seeing reports the same day.

Why teams choose this image

• Privacy-friendly analytics you own: visitors, page views, goals, campaigns, ecommerce and real-time reports, with 100 percent data ownership and tools to help with GDPR.
• No shared default password: every VM sets its own passwords from its own VM ID on first boot, so no two customers share a login.
• Up to date: every component is on its latest stable release and the image carries all Ubuntu 24.04 LTS security updates, with nothing pending.
• Supports Trusted Launch with Secure Boot and vTPM. No build-time SSH keys or shell history are left in the image.

What is included

• Matomo 5.14.2, signature verified
• Apache with PHP 8.3
• MySQL 8.0
• Matomo archiving cron already scheduled
• phpMyAdmin and Webmin 2.670
• Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, fully patched

Getting started

Open http://<vm-public-ip>/ and sign in as admin with your VM ID (Azure portal > the virtual machine > Properties > VM ID), then copy the tracking code into your website. phpMyAdmin (/phpmyadmin, user root) and Webmin (port 8000, user admin) use the same password.

Ports opened for you: SSH 22 and 80, 8000. For production, limit admin ports to your own IP address and add your domain with an SSL certificate. Step-by-step guide: provencloud.io/catalog/azure-matomo-analytics-ubuntu-24-04
