Homelab Infrastructure

This is my personal infrastructure sandbox for running services, testing ideas safely, and building reliable systems I can actually maintain.

How It Works

Core services run on self-hosted infrastructure with clear separation of concerns: storage, apps, networking, and observability.

Changes go through repeatable runbooks, with backups and rollback paths so experiments don't compromise reliability.

Current Stack

  • Service grouping by function and risk level
  • Network boundaries for internal and external access
  • Monitoring hooks for core app health

Storage and Recovery

  • Scheduled backups with restore testing
  • Separation between primary data and backup targets
  • Documented recovery priorities for critical services

Quick Tips

  • Every service should have a restart and rollback path.
  • Treat backups as broken until restore tests pass.
  • Write runbooks while systems are healthy, not during outages.
