Building a home data center involves numerous applications. This article takes my home environment as an example to sort out the applications that need to be used for your reference. Personal Blog: The release of my home data center applications is a cluster of sites with the personal blog as the main body. For building the personal blog, I chose WordP...
Preface: In recent years, the concept of NAS has been more and more widely accepted by everyone. There are many brands of NAS, and the prices of different models vary greatly. I believe everyone is also quite hesitant when choosing. Therefore, this article of mine is mainly based on my experience as a heavy NAS user (having bought 8 NAS devices...
Preface: In the process of building a home data center, three virtualization technologies are involved: traditional Virtual Machine (VM), Linux Container (LXC), and the Docker technology we mainly use when building applications. Why do I use them at the same time...
On a sudden whim today, I spent a whole day updating the current home network topology. Compared to the topology map from around 2015 (I can't remember exactly when), it has undergone huge changes, which also reflects the rapid development of IT technology from a certain perspective. I won't say much else, just take a look, just for...
Suppose an external user wants to access the application corresponding to app1 in the home data center through the link https://app1.example.com, what is the specific access process? You can look at the following flowchart (assuming the home broadband has a public IPv4 address and has I...
In the previous article, we introduced which method should be used to deploy reverse proxies for home broadband under different circumstances. In the next article, we will introduce the working principles and key configuration points of reverse proxies. For a reverse proxy to work properly, two problems need to be solved: the binding of applications and domain names, and the passing of parameters...
When the home data center has completed the deployment of hardware, software, and applications, it is necessary to publish the applications externally. Unlike traditional home broadband which has few applications, publishing applications in a home data center involves many applications, which is far from being as simple as mapping a few ports on a router (provided there is a public IP address)...
Preface: After the home data center is set up, how to manage and operate numerous devices and applications becomes a challenge. Overall, in terms of specific management methods, it is divided into CLI (such as SSH, because SSH is the mainstream CLI management method, so SSH will be used instead of CLI later) and W...
In the previous article, we discussed the hardware choices for building a home data center. In this article, we will mainly discuss the choice of software environment. Deployment method choice: Currently, we have two mainstream methods for deploying applications: LNMP (LAMP) or Docker. 1. Using LNMP (L...
The first step in building a conventional new data center is definitely to choose the building method: on the cloud or self-built? For us, there is no need to hesitate, it is self-built; the second step, strong and weak electricity and wiring, also doesn't need to be worried about. After all, it's a home data center, everything is already built, just use what is available (envious of the rich people who can buy new houses and plan from scratch...
