Anyone running k8s clusters at home? what do you use as servers? Raspberry PIs and then just use many to get high core count? Need around 8-16 cores for the intended workload and would love to replicate across 2 homes for redundancy. Preferably x86 with some RAM as well :smile:

IIRC he uses a few Intel NUCs, but he hosts a lotta stuff

Hi guys, sorry I didn't check my twarps, I run 3x Thinkcentres (approx $700ea) of various ages for my k3s workers. I use 1 NUC as control plane, sad it is deprecated, I was considering adding 2 more for HA control (tho HA in home environment is kind of a joke, outages are from ISP more than node downtime).

Definitely recommend the Thinkcentres because they are a big step up from ARM, got many cores and much RAM. My cluster has about 20 cores and 40GB RAM, plus 30tb storage and I just started adding nvme. Check out k8s-at-home group and username onedr0p on github (or me @leewardbound) for full ansible + gitops examples.

Ansible + GitOps 😍😍😍 Ansible brings up/configures the hosts then GitOps for the rest love it. Will have a look🙏

Hit me up if you wanna talk strategy at all, and join the k8s-at-home discord for (IMHO) the best homelab devops community tech support experience in the world 😁
