Selected facts

Quantitative details and source-backed proof points.

Current source uses capability-based wording until measured uptime, storage scale, GPU specs, indexed-file count, retrieval performance, or backup frequency are added.

Project summary

Why it exists, what I built, and what I learned.

Why I built it

I wanted a real long-running system for storage, media, AI tooling, backups, remote access, and personal workflows.

What I built

A Proxmox-based system with storage, media services, Nextcloud, Immich, DNS, local AI services, and remote access.

What worked

The system became useful because it solved real needs: storage, media, backups, AI experiments, and remote access.

What failed

The early versions had too many services before the information architecture and maintenance model were clear.

What I learned

Infrastructure projects need the same discipline as product work: simple entry points, clear ownership, backups, and documentation.

Stack

Tools, systems, and technical areas involved.
