BigBlueButton Installation & Configuration

What this engagement is for

BigBlueButton gives you live classes — video, whiteboard, polls, breakout rooms, and recordings — without per-minute platform fees, but it needs a properly sized Linux server and careful network configuration. We handle installation, TLS, the Greenlight room manager (or LMS integration), recording storage, and the checks that make joining a class boring and reliable for students.

Outcomes

What you leave with

We measure the work by the product decisions and assets you can use next — not by a slide deck.

01

A working BigBlueButton server with TLS and a branded join experience

02

Rooms managed through Greenlight or your existing LMS

03

Recordings stored, playable, and backed up

04

Server sizing matched to your concurrent classes

How we work

A short path from conversation to something real.

  1. 1

    Size the server

    We estimate concurrent classes and participants, then choose CPU, RAM, bandwidth, and TURN/STUN needs.

  2. 2

    Install and configure

    We set up BigBlueButton, TLS, branding, room management, and recording storage.

  3. 3

    Test with a real class

    We run a pilot session, fix audio/video/network issues, and hand over admin basics.

Deliverables

What we produce

  • Server provisioning guidance and BigBlueButton installation
  • Greenlight or LMS (Moodle etc.) integration
  • Recording, storage, and retention configuration
  • Admin handover: creating rooms, users, and basic troubleshooting

Questions

Before you start

It depends on concurrent users and whether you record. We size it from your class schedule rather than guessing, and explain the cost trade-offs before you buy hosting.

Yes. BigBlueButton runs in the browser on laptops and phones, which is one reason schools choose it.

Yes, via Greenlight for standalone rooms or the standard LTI/API integrations used by Moodle and similar systems.

Expected class sizes and schedule, where the server should live (your cloud or a recommendation), and who will administer rooms day to day.
