Jitsi hosting in your own AWS account

The convenience of managed hosting with the control of self-hosting. We deploy and manage a private Jitsi Meet server inside your AWS account, so the server, the recordings and the data are yours, and AWS bills you directly with no per-user fees.

15 minutes with every feature unlocked. No payment required.

Every server includes

  • Jitsi Meet on a tested, pinned release (stable-11031)
  • EC2 instance, security group and Elastic IP, provisioned with Terraform
  • Your own domain with trusted, auto-renewing SSL, free
  • Live deployment log in the dashboard
  • Resize the server later from the dashboard
  • Clean one-click teardown of everything it created
  • Up to 3 servers per account by default
  • Free 15 minute trial with every feature unlocked

  2. 2

    Pick size, region, domain

    See the estimated monthly AWS cost before you commit. Add recording, transcription, branding or JWT if you need them.

  3. 3

    Deploy and meet

    Watch it build live. In 10 to 20 minutes your Jitsi is on your domain with trusted SSL.

How this compares

Unlike managed hosts, the server lives in your account. Unlike 8x8 JaaS, there are no per-user or per-minute fees. Unlike doing it yourself, there is no SSH, Docker or certificate work. See every way to host Jitsi, compared.

Frequently asked questions

Is this managed Jitsi hosting or self-hosting?

Both. The server is self-hosted in your own AWS account, so you own it and AWS bills you directly. Our platform does the managing: provisioning, configuration, SSL, features, resizing and clean teardown, from a web dashboard with no SSH.

How long does a deployment take?

10 to 20 minutes. The dashboard streams each step live: creating the security group, launching the instance, waiting for SSH, installing Docker and Jitsi, checking DNS and issuing the SSL certificate.

What do I need to get started?

An AWS account with access keys, and optionally a domain or subdomain you can point at the server. You do not need to know AWS, Linux, Docker or Jitsi.

Can I remove everything later?

Yes. One click destroys exactly the resources that deployment created and nothing else in your account. The dialog lists every resource first, including the recordings bucket.

Which clouds are supported?

AWS today. Google Cloud, Azure and DigitalOcean are planned through the same provider interface.
