Small Datacenter…

Hardware: 3x Dell R630’s, 256G (in 2) 512G (in 1) (Proxmox, Vmware ESX, NutanixCE) 1x Dell R730XD, 240TB, 256G-Ram (Truenas) 1x Dell R730XD, 50TB, 128GB Ram (Proxmox Backup Server)

In truenas containers I’m running my entire *Arr stack, cloudflare, Paperless, Ollama, Immich, etc.

In Proxmox I’m running a few Linux VM’s (mail gateway, Desktop VM’s for work, etc). VMWare and Nutanix are disposable hypervisors I use for deployment testing for work stuff.

Host all the things!

Wordpress, SMTP/IMAP, tor, bittorrent, Nextcloud, Plex, NTP, photo galleries, DoT…

I even started hosting the website for my local Italian restaurant and they haven’t even realised it yet.

I have vaultwarden, navidrome, uptime kuma (on a vps, because it doesn’t make sense to host it on my pi, because if it goes down, I’m not gonna know), pihole (though it’s not currently working with Mullvad), dokuwiki, freshrss, searxng, ntfy, and tugtainer (replacement for watchtower since that’s now abandoned).

Hardware:

• hp EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF
• i5-8500
• 32 GB RAM
• 250 ssd boot disk
• 1TB nvme
• 2 x 4 TB SSD

I run most of my services via Docker but also in their own LXCs on Proxmox:

• adguard
• borg-backup
• caddy
• forgejo
• filebrowser-quantum
• rackpeek
• opencloud, Baikal, obsidian-live sync
• immich
• paperless
• vikunja
• navidrome, octo-fiesta
• karakeep
• proxmox-backup-server

Next thing I want to set up would be arcane and maybe ansible, audio-bookshelf, and someday some monitoring.

I access my services only via NetBird when I am out and about.

The biggest flaw in my setup as for now is that I only have one device that’s a single point of failure. Since I have remote backups that’s okayish atm. In the future I would try to get ahold of more hardware and separate things out. For someone who just wanted to try things out a little I got my self kind of deep into it haha Performance vice its enough for me as a single user

Also: If anyone has any suggestions what I could do with my Oracle free tier VPS, besides running a Minecraft server, I would be happy to hear ideas :)

I have a used Lenovo Thinkcentre mini with an i3-7100T and 16gb RAM. I have Ubuntu server LTS installed on it and I run everything in docker containers.

I host:

• jellyfin server for my friends and family
• qbittorrent to download for the JF server(behind a VPN)
• Jellyseerr for requests
• Jackett, Sonarr, and Radarr for downloads
• a Minecraft server

Hi there. My first post in this community.

I’m currently running:

• Pi-hole
• Plex Media Server
• Grafana
• Torrent server
• Monica
• Shaarli
• Matrix instance
• Arch package cache
• Several game servers such as Minecraft and Terraria
• VM running Volvo software to troubleshoot my cars.

My hardware: I used to run it all on a Supermicro x9drd-7ln4f-jbod with dual Xeon E5-2670 v2 with 16x16GB ECC ram and 6x 3TB disks in raidz2 for storage and 2x 60gb Intel SSDs for OS. I started with less and upgraded towards this configuration but it was consuming 300 watt idle which was just unacceptable.

So earlier this year I upgraded to an ASRock Rack x470D4U with Ryzen 7 5700x and 4x32GB ECC (non-registered) ram and 6x 2TB SSDs in raidz2. 1 ssd is in the nvme slot on the motherboard, 4 are in a 4x4 bifurcation card in the 16x slot and 1 more in a 4x riser. All PCIe lanes of the CPU are used. This setup is not possible with an AMD CPU with integrated GPU since it will take up 4 PCIe lanes (you can guess how I know). It uses about 20 watt idle without any containers and VMs running. I initially didn’t want to move away from Supermicro but the ASRock Rack motherboard has IPMI so I’m not missing out on much.

Hardware and software suggestions are welcome :D

Hello selfhosters.

Here’s my list of stuff:

On a VPS hosted in Germany:

• Nextcloud
• Mailcow for my own domain
• A blog (https://www.ninjazumbi.com/)
• Wallabag
• FreshRSS
• WireGuard VPN

On my home server (my old gaming PC, repurposed)

• Proxmox to manage several containers/VMs:
  • OPNsense Firewall
  • HomeAssistant
  • Pihole
  • Gitlab
  • Jellyfin

i don’t self-host yet, but i have an old pc in my house, i just need to bring it with me to colege, so i can learn and start self-hosting

• Tiny Tiny RSS: 13 year old php version (webhosting) 😆
• Home Assistant (NUC DN2820FYK) Not much, but it’s a start 😜

Hello

Let’s have a look at the inventory

• RPI 4B

  • OpenHab (Openhabian actually, so some additional services like Zigbee2MQTT or Grafana)

• HP EliteDesk 800 G2 i5-6500T, 8GiB RAM - this one is currently the mainstay of my lab, running containers with docker-compose

  • Nginx as reverse proxy (+ fail2ban, letsencrypt)
  • Paperless-ngx (+ Redis, Tika, Gotenberg)
  • Jellyfin
  • Minecraft server (+ Mapcrafter)
  • ddclient
  • Heimdall

• Dell OptiPlex 7060 Micro i7-8700T 32GiB RAM

  • I’ve gotten this one fairly recently. A real bargain - costed as much as the CPU alone and was in pristine condition. I will be migrating the workload from EliteDesk to this one. I decided to try ProxMox this time though, so I need to learn a bit first. Also perhaps add a second SSD

Hey all, I’ve been slowly building services on my server over many many years, starting with running a minecraft ftb server, to where I am now, which is 1 primary system(providing the network filesystem) and 2 auxiliary minipc systems my brother in law recently donated. I moved from Docker to Docker Swarm after getting those MiniPC’s and enjoying the added compute. Currently my swarm is running:

• PiHole x2 - AdBlocking and Local DNS Management
• Wg-easy - for Wireguard VPN Management
• nginx - for reverse proxy servicing
• authentik - for Authentication and SSO
• Duplicati - for cloud backups(pointing at backblaze buckets)
• Guacamole - for RDP services
• Grafana+Prometheus+Node-Exporter+Cadvisor+AlertManager - for aggregation and system monitoring
• Gatus - single pane of glass monitoring of services(might remove it now that I’ve started using Grafana)
• diun - monitoring docker image versions and notification
• Bookstack - Personal Knowledge Base system
• Linkwarden - Collaborative Link Sharing and archiving
• Fasten Health - Local Health Records Storage
• SnipeIT - personal asset management
• Affine - self hosted cloud notebook
• Actual - Budgeting Software
• it-tools - for swiss army knife utilities
• kitchenowl - recipes and grocery lists
• Reactive resume - for resume building with AI empowered editing
• Onetimesecret - for burn after reading secret sharing(using it for distributing credentials to my family)
• Searxng - Local Search Aggregation
• Homarr - Personal Dashboarding
• Home Assistant - Smart Home Management
• N8n - Automating codeless workflows
• Ollama and Open-WebUI - personal Agentic AI
• AudioBookshelf - Audiobook streaming and Management
• OwnCloud - local file sharing and storage
• Plex - Video Streaming
• BitMagnet - DHT network sniffer
• syncthing - for transporting data between local and remote systems
• the *Arrs - for acquiring content
• Docspell - for digitizing and storing important documents
• picsur - for local meme storage
• Calibre+Calibre-web - for Ebook management
• Crafty Controller - for Minecraft Server Management
• RomM - For Emulation and ROM Management.

As I go about my day I’m always looking for new and interesting containers to run, and then scrutinizing if they fill a need, replace an existing service with a better version of the same service, or if it’s better off not implementing, then I pull them down. this has been a great experience in devops learning and the longer I work on the server the more best practices I put in place and the more I understand why corporate clouds have some of the practices they have. I look forward to poking around in this community looking to help and to find new containers to accrete into my platform.
