  • docker-cloudflare-ddns

    Discontinued A small amd64/ARM/ARM64 Docker image that allows you to use CloudFlare as a DDNS / DynDNS Provider.

  • Hi, you can use Cloudflare's DNS service, in combination with the Docker container (https://hub.docker.com/r/oznu/cloudflare-ddns/). This will allow you to get your public IP dynamically (about every 5mins). And then you can enable port forwarding for http (port 80) and https (port 443) on your ISP's box.

  • tailscale

    The easiest, most secure way to use WireGuard and 2FA.

  • https://tailscale.com. Kind of a VPN, but you don’t actually have to run a VPN server or do any port forwarding. Though I’m not sure if you can use your own custom domain.

  • 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.
