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 got an old Dell Poweredge tower server with dual 6-Core Xeons, 128 GB Ram, and 21 TB combined Raid 5 storage.

10 VM's
Veeam Backups
All behind a Mikrotik RB3011

I run one service per VM because I like being able to nuke the whole thing without bringing down any other services.

You can get some good hardware on eBay if you know what you're looking at. The HDD and SDD's cost more than the server. Electricity probably runs about $16/mo.

Biggest problem I've got coming up is what I'm going to do for backups once I exceed Veeam community editions 10 VM limit.

Three most important VM's are Jellyfin (whole family uses every day), Paperless-ngx (I use every day), and Jitsi (kids use to video call Grandma and Grandpa). Most of the other stuff is non-essential.
