Install on Amazon AWS

Last updated: 2026-07-16

Install the Dromlik PBX on an Amazon AWS EC2 instance directly from the AWS Marketplace. The marketplace image bundles the operating system, the PBX packages, and the default network configuration so the instance is ready to activate as soon as it finishes launching.

Before you begin

  • An AWS account with permission to launch EC2 instances and create VPCs, subnets, security groups, and key pairs.
  • An SSH key pair in the AWS region you plan to deploy to (or create one during launch).
  • Extension and concurrent-call estimates so you can pick the right instance type — see the Server requirements.

Steps

  1. 1

    Open the Dromlik listing in AWS Marketplace

    Sign in to AWS Marketplace and search for Dromlik PBX. Open the product page.

  2. 2

    Subscribe and continue to configuration

    Click Continue to Subscribe and accept the terms. Then click Continue to Configuration in the top-right corner. You're taken to the instance deployment page.

  3. 3

    Choose the region

    In the Region drop-down, pick a region close to your users and trunk provider — SIP round-trip latency matters more than raw distance. Click Continue to Launch.

  4. 4

    Pick the EC2 instance type

    Choose the instance type that matches your extension count and concurrent calls:

    SizeRecommended instance type
    1–20 EXT (1–5 CC)t3.small
    21–50 EXT (6–13 CC)t3.medium
    51–250 EXT (14–63 CC)c5a.xlarge
    251–500 EXT (64–125 CC)c5a.2xlarge
    501–1000 EXT (126–250 CC)c5.2xlarge
    > 1000 EXT (> 250 CC)Contact Dromlik
  5. 5

    Configure VPC, subnet, and security group

    Pick an existing VPC and subnet, or create new ones. For the security group, click Create New Based On Seller Settings — this opens the required SIP, RTP, HTTPS, and SSH ports automatically. Save the security group.

  6. 6

    Attach an SSH key pair

    Select an existing key pair or create a new one. You'll need it if you ever want SSH access to the instance.

  7. 7

    Launch

    Click Launch. AWS provisions the instance; wait until the state shows Running. Click EC2 Console to see the instance in the EC2 dashboard.

Reach the PBX web console

  1. In the EC2 console, click the instance ID and copy the value shown as Public IPv4 address.
  2. Open https://<public-ip>:8088 in a browser.

What to do next

  • Follow Activate and initial setup to run the installation wizard and enter your license code.
  • For SSH access, use the support user with the console password you set under Security → Security Settings → Console/SSH Access.
