I have recently joined the selfhosting world after many years of thinking about it. Currently running casaOS with an assortment of containers. Mainly use nextcloud, paperlessNGX, and general file storage.
I am thinking of creating a proxmox cluster. Just wanted to ask for those who do. Is it worth it? And what services are you guys running?
I was thinking of using it for NAS, and a window VM and run other random things that I don't know yet.
Looking into grabbing some Lenovo M715q. Found a decent deal.
Proxmox is all I use for VM hosting, it is well worth it IMO, I colo metal and I host several virtual machines on it, webservers, ircds, kbin, etc. I specifically use Virtual Machines (KVM) however, it does have the ability to do containerization too (LXC).
Man, I wish I could find a good colo solution that wouldn't kill me with fees. VPS isn't bad cost-wise, but I'd really like to be able to throw as much hardware as I want at it without paying $1k/mo.
