In the What are YOU self-hosting? thread, there are a lot of people here who are self-hosting a huge number of applications, but there’s not a lot of discussion of the platform these things run on.

What does your self-hosted infrastructure look like?

Here are some examples of more detailed questions, but I’m sure there are plenty more topics that would be interesting:

  • What hardware do you run on? Or do you use a data center/cloud?
  • Do you use containers or plain packages?
  • Orchestration tools like K8s or Docker Swarm?
  • How do you handle logs?
  • How about updates?
  • Do you have any monitoring tools you love?
  • Etc.

I’m starting to put together the beginning of my own homelab, and I’ll definitely be starting small but I’m interested to hear what other people have done with their setups.

    Nice! I have my Turing pi 2 still sitting in the box until I can actually find some pi CM4s. One of these days…

    I do have a k3s cluster running on two regular pis with PoE Hats and a little network switch. Works well. Here’s my homelab repo if you want food for thought (ansible for bootstrapping the cluster, then helm for apps).
