    • Instructions for optimal server configuration for Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware

    Posted by jeffreestar

    Hello Tiki community!

    I want to share and discuss the optimal server configuration for Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware to operate stably and fast. Tiki is a powerful platform, but also quite heavy if not configured properly. Here is the setup I am using for a small to medium production environment:

    Recommended configuration:

    Web server: Apache or Nginx (I use Nginx + PHP-FPM for better performance)

    PHP: Version 8.1 or higher, enable extensions like gd, intl, mbstring, zip, pdo_mysql

    Database: MariaDB or MySQL 8.0, optimize innodb_buffer_pool_size

    RAM: Minimum 2 GB, recommended 4 GB if there are many concurrent users

    Cache: Use Redis or Memcached to reduce query load

    SSL: Configure Let’s Encrypt to ensure connection security https://thatsnotmyneighbor.org/Question

    I noticed a significant improvement in page load speed after enabling OPcache and Gzip compression.

    If anyone in the community has experience with more advanced optimization (e.g., reverse proxy, load balancing, or CDN), please share!

    Great setup! Enabling OPcache, Gzip, and using Redis/Memcached are key—adding CDN or reverse proxy could further boost scalability.

    Ah, it can be a good idea for our project, but do you think that we need more detail about this issue
