Stop guessing what is happening inside your servers. This guide sets up Grafana and Prometheus to monitor your Proxmox nodes and Docker containers in real time.
self-hosted
A complete guide to setting up your own self-hosted AI assistant with OpenClaw, Docker, Tailscale, and Telegram on an Ubuntu VM.
Docker
Docker’s default settings prioritise convenience over security, leaving your services surprisingly vulnerable. Discover the 10 essential tweaks you need to lock down your containers before exposing them to the web.
Proxmox Backup Server
Built-in Proxmox backups are fine, but a dedicated Proxmox Backup Server unlocks massive space savings through deduplication. See exactly how I deployed mine to bulletproof my homelab data.
Proxmox
LXC containers are lightweight, but true kernel-level isolation and security require full Virtual Machines. Find out why I chose this route and which Linux distribution serves as the rock-solid foundation for my setup.
data center
Skyrocketing energy prices can make running a 24/7 homelab expensive, but default performance settings waste a massive amount of power. Learn the crucial CPU tweaks I used to drastically cut my cluster's electricity draw without killing performance.
