Homelab serves as a hands-on learning and development environment for exploring the world of infrastructure management. The main goals of this lab are to:
- Test and experiment with various Dev/Sec/ML-Ops'ish and infrastructure management tools and technologies, simulating real-world production environments.
- Construct and maintain a highly available and scalable infrastructure.
Key areas of focus include:
- Monitoring: Implementing systems to monitor infrastructure and applications, ensuring reliability and top performance.
- Contenerization: Utilizing Docker, Swarm, LXC / LXD and K8s for managing containerized applications, ensuring portability and efficient resource utilization.
- IaaC (Infrastructure as Code): Implementing automation and configuration management tools to streamline infrastructure deployment and management, promoting consistency and reducing human error.
- Security: Ensuring the lab's security through best practices and monitoring, including data encryption and access control.
- Self-Healing: Automating issue detection and resolution to promote high availability and stability.
