I have setup a self hosting Kubernetes, Ghost blog and Schnack commenting system. Here is a series of guides. Comments welcome

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/kubernetes

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • charts

    Bitnami Helm Charts (by bitnami)

  • You could simplify the setup quite a bit with helm and helmfile: https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/master/bitnami/ghost - This is how I deployed my Ghost server. You could even write your own chart for Schnack.

  • longhorn

    Cloud-Native distributed storage built on and for Kubernetes

  • Obligatory Longhorn mention here too. Easy to setup, "k8s native" distributed storage, and RPi/ARM is now supported: https://longhorn.io/ (support is still "experimental - not recommended for production)

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • k8s-gitops

    Kubernetes cluster powered by GitOps with FluxCD- Unified source of truth, automated workflows, declarative infrastructure, and cutting-edge DevOps practices. (by xUnholy)

  • Also - this is pretty awesome: https://raspbernetes.github.io/ My currently running RPi4 home lab cluster was built using this.
