2 Raspberry Pi 4 with a few services running (some directly, some via docker): pihole, pialert, gitlab plantuml, munin, restic rest server, jupyter instance, airsonic-advanced. And an old synology NAS which serves as document and media server
What are you running in docker
There's a lot not worth mentioning, but broadly...
That's a lot. Impressive
Wow I am not in your league
I am currently migrating from a dedicated docker host to a proxmox host with multiple LXC containers.
old host - 23 docker containers, 128GB system drive, 4TB data drive
backup server - 1 docker container, 1TB disk
proxmox - 3 LXC containers, one of which has 3 docker containers. 500GB system drive, 4TB media drive (not LVM)
The plan is to migrate the loads on the old host to the proxmox host. I also have another 4TB drive coming with the intent of setting up a RAID with 2 of the 4TB drives.
I've got an old Dell Poweredge tower server with dual 6-Core Xeons, 128 GB Ram, and 21 TB combined Raid 5 storage.
I run one service per VM because I like being able to nuke the whole thing without bringing down any other services.
You can get some good hardware on eBay if you know what you're looking at. The HDD and SDD's cost more than the server. Electricity probably runs about $16/mo.
Biggest problem I've got coming up is what I'm going to do for backups once I exceed Veeam community editions 10 VM limit.
Three most important VM's are Jellyfin (whole family uses every day), Paperless-ngx (I use every day), and Jitsi (kids use to video call Grandma and Grandpa). Most of the other stuff is non-essential.
