I just spent a good chunk of today migrating some services onto new docker containers in Proxmox LXCs.

As I was updating my network diagram, I was struck by just how many services, hosts, and LXCs I'm running, so counted everything up.

116 docker containers
- Running on 25 docker hosts
- 50 are the same on each docker host - Watchtower and Portainer agent
38 Proxmox LXCs (19 are docker hosts)
8 physical servers
7 VLANs
5 SSIDs
2 NASes

So, it got me wondering about the size of other people's homelabs. What are your stats?

I've pared mine down a lot. The biggest hurdle for me has been storage.

It used to be 5 2u servers running a ceph cluster, but that got to be expensive and unruly.

Now it's mainly a small half depth supermicro for my firewall, a half depth supermicro for home assistant, a 2u Dell for unraid, and a small NAS.

Unraid houses Plex and the *arrs. Along with a handful of other useful services like immich.

I do colo a 1u HP though that houses my pbx, web server, unifi controller, jirai server, nextcloud, email, and a bunch of other servers that I run.

Now, I've got a lot of spare hardware though. 7 Dell 1u servers, 2 Dell 2u, a supermicro 3u, an HP 2u and a bunch of things clients that I might turn into replacements for my rokus.
