A home datacenter is what most Americans need, but don't deserve. What first started as a project to play around with declarative deployments and container orchestration has now grown into a server stack that runs critical services for my day to day life.
<br> <br>
<img src="assets/img/dc1.JPG" class="blog-image"> <br>
The hyper-converged infrastructure consists of 3 physical servers, all running Proxmox Virtual Environment as a hypervisor.
One of these machines has a 6-slot HDD bay, which is where the TrueNAS instance is virtualized. Another server runs an OPNsense appliance for firewalling and routing.
All servers run k3s master/worker Debian nodes, declaratively provisioned with Ansible and a gitops workflow through flux. Every server is equipped with 10gbps SFP+ NICs, and
the Juniper EX3300 L3 switch also comes with 4 SFP+ 10gbps slots, allowing for relatively fast data transfer speeds on LAN.
<br>
<br>
All these virtualized environments and containerized applications need space for persistent storage, which is where TrueNAS comes in. It's a FreeBSD-based NAS system that runs on top of ZFS, which allows
for the creation of highly available and fault tolerant networked file systems. It currently consists of 2 x 6 TB HDDs configured in a mirrored pool, with a 500 GB NVMe SSD as an L2 cache, and 64 GB of RAM as L1 cache.
Because of the layered approach to caching frequently accessed data, we are able to saturate the 10gbps line when doing large-file data transfers (i.e. restoring backups).
<br> <br>
Here is the logical diagram of my homelab setup.

<br>
The diagram below depics the logical topology of the network and the connections to external services, namely Cloudflare and AWS.
<br> <br>
Had to fit some of the ultra-small form factor PCs with SFP+ NICs to enable 10gbps transfer speeds on LAN.

<br>
Two of the servers are ultra small form factor PCs, which made installing the massive 10gbps NICs extremely fun.
