Homelab v1

2020-07 to 2024-10

• Virtual machines
• Containers
• Backups
• Patching
• Monitoring

overview

My first homelab simulated enterprise application hosting. I ran it as a small service for clients, which meant data integrity, patching and disaster recovery all had to work for real.

what i built

• Data storage and backup solutions for clients to protect data integrity and support disaster recovery.
• Self-deployed applications hosted and managed for client use.
• Virtual machines and containers kept up to date with the latest security patches and bug fixes.
• Weekly offsite backups to safeguard client data against failures or breaches.

results

• 99.99% uptime through proactive server maintenance and monitoring.
• Weekly offsite backups for the whole life of the project.
