Hi, just recently it’s foss had an article about homelabs. Of course I digged in, since there is a small nuc working tirelessly in the corner of my routers closet. So far it just crawls some web pages for me and sends emails accordingly to my filters. So I hoped to find new exciting stuff to let it crunch through. The articles content did not spark my interest though.
Well, I’d like to know what you are using on your homelab. In hope you’ll do something I’d like to follow. Cheers
Wow, that is an extensive list! Impressive. I guess, your home lab doesn’t live just in an pi or old nuc. What kind of hardware are you using for all that?
I’ve got three of these little 1L HP’s, one for production, a spare, and one for development. But really, it’s a small load - that list would happily run on an old nuc. The constraint is really memory which I’ve mostly addressed by moving from VMs to LXCs. And I could be even more efficient by just running all the docker containers on one host if I had to.
Storage for media and backups is a Synology NAS.
Thanks for sharing. That is not what I expected. My nuc sometimes seems sluggish, even with a fairly small load. Guess i have something hogging the resources. 🤨
