Proxmox Homelab
Virtualization and Network Lab
Build and maintain a virtualization environment for self-hosted services, testing, infrastructure experiments, and networking services.
What I built
Build and maintain a Proxmox virtualization environment to separate internet-facing services from internal infrastructure while providing an isolated environment for experimentation, self-hosting, and infrastructure projects.
Why I built it
I wanted to gain hands-on experience with virtualization, service isolation, and infrastructure management while maintaining a safe environment for experimenting with networking and self-hosted applications.
