Take full control of your LIMS with a pre-configured SENAITE Enterprise Virtual Machine. The latest SENAITE 2.x on a hardened Debian server, scalable and robust, ready for production or staging on day one.

Production-ready
IN THREE DAYS

01 / Position A LIMS your team can stand up on day one

We take the slow part of a SENAITE rollout — the server build, the cluster topology, the load balancer, the monitoring, the backup tooling — and ship it as a finished VM image. Your team starts at "configure for our lab" instead of "install and tune the stack."

The SENAITE Starter add-on is preinstalled, so customisation of sample types, analysis services, and report templates begins immediately.

02 / What's inside A complete production stack
  • Debian 13 Server. Up-to-date base OS with long-term support and the patch cadence enterprise IT expects.
  • SENAITE LIMS 2.x preinstalled. The latest release of the platform, with all dependencies pinned and reproducible.
  • SENAITE Starter add-on included. Customise sample types, analysis services, calculations, and report templates without rebuilding the runtime.
  • ZEO cluster setup. Two configured instances behind the storage server, so the system grows with you instead of forcing a re-architecture later.
  • HAProxy load balancing. Even traffic distribution and graceful failover between the ZEO clients.
  • NGINX front controller. Optimised reverse proxy with HTTP/2, gzip, and cache headers tuned for SENAITE.
  • Munin monitoring. Real-time graphs of CPU, memory, disk, ZEO worker health, and request throughput from day one.
  • Automated backup & restore. Daily ZODB packs, file-system snapshots, and tested restore scripts.
  • UFW firewall & hardening. Industry-standard Linux security baseline applied out of the box.
  • Documentation. Installation, customisation, and operations guides covering the whole stack.
03 / Benefits Why labs pick the Enterprise VM
  • Time to value. The infrastructure is finished; you spend your time on the workflow, not the runtime.
  • Predictable footprint. The stack is the same on every install we ship, which makes support, upgrades, and audits straightforward.
  • Scalable from the start. ZEO + HAProxy means adding workers later is configuration, not migration.
  • Auditable. Every package, every configuration file, every backup job is documented and reproducible.
  • Secure by default. UFW, OS hardening, and SENAITE Care can drop straight in for managed monitoring.
04 / How delivery works Three days from order to download

After we receive your order, our team prepares the VM image and the documentation bundle and uploads them to your secure download location within three working days.

The image ships as a standard OVA / qcow2 you can run on VMware, Proxmox, KVM, or Hyper-V. Hetzner / Hostinger / on-prem — wherever your data lives. We can also deploy it on dedicated hardware we manage; see SENAITE Care for the managed-hosting option.
