JumpBox Open

JumpBox Open is a collection of easy to use virtual appliances for Open Source software. Each JumpBox is focused on a single task (or single application) and is carefully crafted to capture the best practices for how the software should be implemented.

Using a JumpBox is kind of like getting the experience of a skilled IT admin bottled in a simple to deploy package that you can just download and run in minutes. JumpBoxes will run on all of the popular virtualization platforms including VMWare, Parallels, Microsoft Virtual PC/Server, Virtual Iron and Xen.

There's a great selection of JumpBoxes in the Open Collection. Those with download links are available for free trial.
