Homelab

Overview

My homelab runs a mix of self-hosted services on a small Kubernetes (K3s) cluster behind a reverse proxy.

Hardware

| Device | Role | Specs | |--------|------|-------| | Mini PC | K3s master + worker | Intel N100, 16 GB RAM, 500 GB NVMe |

Services

• Reverse Proxy — Traefik with automatic TLS via Let's Encrypt
• Auth — PocketID for SSO / OIDC across all services
• Monitoring — Uptime Kuma for health checks
• Git — Gitea for private repos and CI runners
• DNS — Pi-hole for ad blocking and local DNS

Network Topology

Internet
  └─ Router / Firewall
       └─ VLAN 10 — Server network
            ├─ K3s Node 1 (master)
            └─ K3s Node 2 (worker)
       └─ VLAN 20 — Client devices

Future Plans

• Add dedicated NAS for backups and media
• Migrate to Talos Linux for immutable OS
• Set up Grafana + Prometheus for deeper monitoring
