I run a Kubernetes cluster on my own hardware for personal projects. I handle deployment, operation, and monitoring, gaining practical experience with the infrastructure behind my applications.
Initial problem
My own projects need an environment where I can run and monitor applications myself.
Implementation
Kubernetes on my own hardware, Prometheus for metrics, and Grafana for visualization.
Outcome
Infrastructure I manage myself, with visibility into resources and how my applications run.
