  • Homelab for DevOps experience?

    Jump

  • Arr stack / media server stuff is more of a background task that I wouldn't mention or put in a resume, and it's just a personal use case that I'd eventually want if I'm building a server anyways

  • Ohhh good move! When you say tier iii roles, though, I only have about a year's experience as a systems engineer, although my boss would let me change my title if I want. Should I list myself as a software engineer or computer engineer instead?

  • Thank you! I know a chunk of the *arr stack isn't useable anymore.

    I'm trying to get the resume experience so that I can actually land an interview! I've gotten an offer from every job I've ever interviewed for in my life (mid 20's) but I can't seem to land DevOps engineering interviews :./

  • Thats a long list of things to cover, how much free time do you have?

    a lot? I'm working about 30 hours/week + wrapping up my undergrad in Computer Engineering online, but should be done with that this year. With that in mind, I need to get as much viable experience as possible in between now and graduation so that I'll actually be qualified when application time comes

    I've set up my server before as a remote desktop running Ubuntu, but essentially didn't really use it other than tinkering. Then I set up a NAS, then nuked it and set up Proxmox + Ubuntu server and would just SSH into it to tinker.

    Now that I've played the game and I've seen that i can do it, I want to dive in the deep end of what enterprise grade stuff should feel like. In terms of certs, I've done a few AWS courses from AWS but they all seemed pretty... useless? Almost entirely common sense information from the beginner certs and I learned nothing. So I gave up on that and will be aiming for project experience instead.

  • upon further review, I think I'm going to just set up everything in Grafana due to the vast utility it provides and it's enterprise capability and adoption. Any thoughts on replacing a purpose built homelab dashboard with custom built grafana dashs?

  • What does your self-hosted e-book management workflow look like?

  • I was looking into Kavita due to their support for manga! I believe most of the ebook readers either support .pdf/.epub style things meant for western books and seperate apps primarily support manga alone, Kavita seemed like the only mature service for all of it!

  • early on, so you don’t have to convert all your services at once but can integrate them when you set them up.

    For this part, i'm not sure what you mean by convert all my services? are you talking like a 2FA app or similar?

  • Sweet, I'll throw it on a flash drive for the time being, then eventually also get it on my NAS after it's all set up

  • Lowkey I want to get a job as a devops engineer eventually (may make a new post asking for advice) but I was thinking of trying to set up my homelab using kubernetes. I know it's overkill but I need the project experience and want to learn it, so I was considering LocalHost (self hosted aws-like thingy I think) + terraform / kubernetes to config everything
