A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Multiple clusters. You dont necessarily want all your nodes on a single cluster, and in the enterprise you often don't.

And if you're a cloud service provider, you want to be able to separate your tenants, but still manage all of them.

After dealing with clusters before I don't want any of my machines in clusters.

I wouldn't be able to function with that level of risk

For us it was more of a liability than anything. We didn't use any of the high availability features, and every time we needed to remove and readd a host it was a massive pain in the ass and usually broke more things. It was nice for migrating VMs around, but we don't do that all THAT often.

I'm curious if this datacenter will handle our shitty hosts spontaneously dying and needing to be rebuilt better.

HA is pretty much the point - and I can't see any enterprise running without it. Maybe small, but nothing mid or large size. A sector Proxmox can get into at least in small scale (seeing this now actually), and grow.

This seems like a PEBCAK issue. This isn't going to help anything if you aren't even using clusters.
