Som et supplement til vores nye WordPress-tjeneste i Edora Cloud, har vi valgt at publicere en lille guide. Vi går ikke i tekniske detaljer, da vi antager at du kender WordPress, og bare vil hurtigt i gang. Men husk, at hvis du forventer meget trafik eller har brug for at installere krævende plug-ins, kan du altid skalere tjenesten op med flere ressourcer efterfølgende.
Looking for a Danish solution to your multi-site WordPress needs? We just released a one-click WordPress stack available in Edora Cloud and on-prem Origo OS immediately.
You can host as many sites as you like. Each site has its own separate domain name, database, plugins, themes, etc.
Read our getting started guide to learn more. The guide is in Danish because for now, we only support Danish clients in Edora Cloud. This will of course change once we have a bit more experience running a public cloud, and feel comfortable expanding our services to other regions.
Read more…A little more than one month ago we launched Edora Cloud. A Danish, sovereign, public cloud. Our approach is unconventional compared to other cloud providers in that we publish our infrastructure orchestration software as open source, and offer the posibility of running this on-prem. Compared to the very few and scattered, previous Nordic attempts at building public cloud offerings, we have purposely chosen not to rely on traditional enterprise tech, but are instead relying on our own orchestration stack, built around open source building blocks like Linux and KVM. We offer both a full-featured IaaS offering for running virtual servers, as well as various services built on top op this, including a Kubernetes service.
We take pride in extensive support for both Windows servers and Linux servers in Edora Cloud and Origo OS.
Running a single virtual server with a public IP, and using it as jump host to access potentially dozens of virtual servers with only internal IP addresses, is a very common way of running collections of Linux servers in cloud environments. This is practical because most Linux system administration is done using SSH.
For Windows servers the situation is a bit more complicated, because a lot of system administration is traditionally done using the Windows UI over RDP connections (aka Terminal Services). Using a Windows server as jump host by using nested RDP connections is of course possible, but really clunky. Instead many Windows shops choose to use a VPN connection to access their internal IP address space, and then connect directly to internal servers and services. In this post we will show you how to set up a VPN service in Edora Cloud, which can also double as firewall for your internal virtual servers.
With a bit of a delay (we’ve been busy), we’re happy to announce that as of September 2024 Origo Systems ApS has entered into a partnership with leading Danish software developer, IT consultancy and hosting vendor Edora A/S. As part of the partnership Edora A/S has invested in Origo Systems and received access to Origo technology.
Using Origo OS and drawing on Origo’s extensive experience with cloud technologies, Edora has already built and launched a public compute cloud under the brand name “Edora Cloud”, offering IaaS services as well as a full complement of cloud native services like Kubernetes.
Edora Cloud is open source, 100% Danish owned, fully GDPR compliant and available today at: https://edora.cloud.

For those unaware of it, things in the cloud business are heating up here in the Northern part of Europe. It seems to be finally dawning on the EU, that “the cloud” is not some minor issue that should be handled as an afterthought after all the “real” market issues like industry, agriculture, fishing, oil, banking, etc. have been handled. The reality is, that the cloud is one of the most important and most pressing issues of our time, and the EU is very late to the game. Today, the cloud is how we place phone calls, discuss political issues, maintain personal relations, find information, stay updated, communicate and perhaps even more importantly, how our companies do all of their communication, financial transactions, in short all of their business. Cloud fiefdoms, search engines and social networks have replaced markets. All communication, commerce and finance today depends on the cloud. By extension, those who control the cloud, control our societies.
Having a word processor, a spreadsheet and a presentation tool available in a web browser is very, very cool – especially for collaborative work.
Storing your documents in some tech giants’ cloud without the slightest idea about where your data is being stored and what your data is used for, and editing your documents using tools made available for you without access to the source code, in short, simply handing over all your personal documents to a giant, foreign entity outside your country’s rule of law, is not so cool.
Recently I agreed to help a start-up that had lost their lead developer and were in quite a pickle. This gave me an opportunity to dig into some of the more obscure corners of Amazon’s offerings. Their stuff was built on, and ran in AWS. The task at hand: Process audio from players on a sports team recorded during a game or a training session, transcribe it to text, do some statistics on the words found and present the results in a UI. The idea: to analyze and improve team performance through improved communication. I took over their existing code and tech stack which tried to do all of that.
