Magento 2.4.8-p4 (latest stable, March 2026 patch) on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, configured per Adobe's production deployment guide and tuned for Standard_B2ms (2 vCPU / 8 GB RAM).

Production-grade stack

• Web tier: NGINX 1.24 front (:80) -> Varnish 7 full-page cache (:6081) -> NGINX backend (:8080) -> PHP-FPM 8.3 — Adobe's recommended layout
• Cache tier: Varnish 7 (768 MB malloc store, FPC TTL 24h) + Redis 7 (default cache + sessions, 512 MB allkeys-lru)
• DB tier: MySQL 8.0 with innodb_buffer_pool_size=1.5G, innodb_log_file_size=512M, max_connections=250
• Search tier: OpenSearch 2 (single-node, 1 GB heap)
• PHP: 8.3 with all 25 Magento extensions, opcache + JIT enabled (memory_consumption=512, jit=1255, jit_buffer_size=256M)
• Deploy mode: production (DI compiled, en_US static content pre-deployed)
• Indexers: schedule mode (async via cron) — production setting
• Cron: bin/magento cron:install registered for indexers + email queue

Security

• Randomized admin path (cloudimg-admin-XXXX) — defends against brute-force on default /admin URL
• fail2ban monitoring SSH + Magento admin login attempts
• UFW closed by default — customer opens 80/443 to their CDN/LB CIDR
• Per-VM credential rotation at first boot: MySQL password, admin password, admin path all rotated; written to /stage/scripts/magento-credentials.log (mode 0600 root)
• Argon2id password hashing for admin user (Magento 2.4.8 default)
