My own distributed cloud for multiple services?

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

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

    Making Docker and Kubernetes management easy.

  • How much time are you willing to read and learn? These are not things you'll be able to pick up overnight. You might also consider Nomad over Kubernetes. Portainer also has a distributed model (and can use Nomad/k8s I believe).

  • Nomad

    Nomad is an easy-to-use, flexible, and performant workload orchestrator that can deploy a mix of microservice, batch, containerized, and non-containerized applications. Nomad is easy to operate and scale and has native Consul and Vault integrations.

  • 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.

  • wireguard-vyatta-ubnt

    WireGuard for Ubiquiti Devices

  • I’d recommend Wireguard to connect everything with an overlay network instead of exposing services directly on the Internet. It minimizes the attack surface significantly, so if you one of your services has an exploit, they’d first have to get on your Wireguard network to attack. That’d be very difficult for all but the most targeted attacks.

  • pass-import

    A pass extension for importing data from most existing password managers

  • Checkout Pass for a password manager. It uses Git as a backend so I think I checks the boxes of distributed and robust.

  • authentik

    The authentication glue you need.

  • Recommend Authentik for Auth/SSO.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
