Securing your Mautic Installation

Secure, production-ready Mautic installation in 2024

UPDATED on FEB 9 2024, for Mautic 4.4.11

This is a basic but production-ready Mautic installation tutorial, that you can run in a SMALL production environment with real data from your customers. This tutorial keeps everything as simple as possible but will require some basic understanding of the Linux command line.

This is a slightly more advanced installation process than the rest of tutorials I usually provide.
It is meant for a basic, but secure and production-ready Mautic sewtup, allowing for a more secure install of Mautic 4.4.12 on a Virtual Private Server (VPS) with PHP 8.1 on top of Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

This tutorial should take you between 10 and 20 minutes depending on your level of expertise with Mautic and Linux.

If you are new to Mautic or the Linux command line, first try this much simpler Mautic tutorial: Mautic 4.4.12 installation on Ubuntu 22.04 with PHP8.0 and MariaDB 10.6, it’s the simplest way to get started and the probability of anything going sideways is minimal.

Mautic Installation: Mautic Hardware Requirements

The adequate amount of hardware resources you need for your Mautic installation will depend on the Mautic features you’ll be using.
There’s no silver bullet when it comes to Mautic performance, but we will try to provide a guide on how to calculate the requirements for your own, self-hosted, Mautic installation.

Find out how to accurately forecast the Mautic Requirements for your next Mautic installation and prevent Mautic from running slow or completely freezing.

As a Mautic Ops and Systems Architect, I have encountered several perfectly OK Mautic installations that were just terribly slow (to the point of not being usable anymore) but otherwise perfectly OK, what usually happens is that the new server is gauged accordingly to some basic rules, like 1GB of RAM for every 10K users. This way of forecasting your Mautic hardware requirements is too simplistic and will probably lead to either a slow-running Mautic installation or a too big invoice.
