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.

    You might check our Authentik for the authentication bit. It’s kinda complex, but can do proxy auth, OIDC, SAML, and LDAP.

      I’ve seen Authentik mentioned. I’m currently thinking about trying out Cosmos-Cloud.io. it has everything built in and runs on docker. I doubt I’ll stay without since the licensing is ambiguous at the moment.
