Operator Priorities
The homepage is organized around the infrastructure jobs readers actually need to finish: automate Proxmox, keep Kubernetes understandable, and design storage that can be restored under pressure.
Proxmox automation that scales past a weekend build
Find repeatable guidance for cluster design, VM and LXC lifecycle work, helper scripts, backup policy, and migration planning so your Proxmox setup stays predictable as complexity grows.
Explore Proxmox guidesKubernetes operations for teams that still touch the metal
Mr.PlanB covers Kubernetes from an operator's point of view, with plain-language explanations of networking, distributions, backup strategy, and day-two reliability instead of abstract platform theater.
Read Kubernetes guidesStorage and backup design built around recovery
Compare ZFS, Ceph, PBS, tape, and related storage patterns with the tradeoffs that actually matter when you need fast restores, durable data, and sane operating costs in self-hosted environments.
