My own infrastructure
Where I try things before they reach production. It all comes back from one git repository, nothing in it answers the internet, and its backups are restored every month to prove they still work. Take the homelab tour
- Cluster rebuilt from git
- ~35 min
- VPS rebuilt from nothing
- ~15 min
- Copies of every backup
- 3
- Restores tested
- Monthly
Latest notes
Spinning Down SAS Disks
SAS drives ignore ATA standby and the usual tools quietly stop working on them. What actually parks them, and a script that keeps them parked.
Offsite Backup to Oracle Cloud with restic
An encrypted offsite backup on an Oracle Cloud Always Free instance, no dependencies — in place of a HyperBackup setup that needed a working DSM to restore.
One Identity Provider for Everything
Authentik on Oracle Cloud in place of scattered logins: Google login everywhere, proxy auth for Guacamole, OAuth2 for Portainer, a K8s outpost for the cluster.
