Home Lab Infrastructure

Self-hosted environment running Proxmox, Docker, Game Servers, and VPNs. Focus on network management and sysadmin skills.

Proxmox Docker Linux Nginx Ansible

Project Overview

A personal playground for learning enterprise infrastructure concepts. This homelab mimics a production environment with virtualization, container orchestration, and network segmentation.

Running on a refurbished enterprise server, it hosts critical services like DNS (Pi-hole), Reverse Proxy (Nginx Proxy Manager), and media servers, accessible securely from anywhere via WireGuard.

Key Features

Proxmox VE Cluster for virtualization
Docker Swarm for container orchestration
Network-wide AdBlocking via Pi-hole
WireGuard VPN for secure remote access
Automated backups to NAS (TrueNAS)
Self-hosted Game Servers (Minecraft, Valheim)
Grafana monitoring dashboard for server health
