I never understood the point of Bitnami. Every time I tried one of their image / package, it's a complicated mess full of custom and strange stuff, really hard to work with.

Instead of a simple package of the software based on some familiar base, you get some weird enterprise garbage that follows strange conventions and a nightmare when you need to customize anything.

Back in the day, Bitnami was a way to run Wordpress on Windows. They packaged it nicely so that you could install it on Windows Server. Nowdays that could get you fired, but back then Linux was not so widespread.
