Starting a new Cloud/HomeLab blog at this domain - let me know if you want a contributor invite!
I get what the author is talking about with losing trust in your services when they are unavailable. I have found that a Raspberry Pi 3/4 cluster running k3s utilizing NAS storage has very good uptime and honestly I think my internet service goes down more than my homelab services.
Thanks! I find most of the issues occur during upgrades to services, but that is to be expected.
My internet service is usually more of an issue than most services I run. Though some things take longer to get tweaked and running well and that can cause issues.
Upgrades to services - that’s why I run dev namespaces and copy over my production shares to dev and utilize zfs snapshotting.
I haven’t set up testing yet and only just started with prometheus monitoring but so far things run pretty well.
Oh, dev namespaces are a good idea. Do you have a dev domain then too?
I toyed with dev domain but ended up using namespace.tld and postfixing -dev to my namespace so it works out to service.tld and service-dev.tld.
Ah okay that makes sense, you’re using the internal cluster domain to route to services
