Overview

DevOps Pipelines for Homelabs: Build CI/CD, GitOps and Automated Deployments with Docker, Kubernetes, ArgoCD and Terraform Modern DevOps isn't limited to big enterprises anymore. Today, anyone can build powerful automation pipelines at home using lightweight servers, containers and open-source tools. This book is your complete, practical and hands-on guide to designing, deploying and mastering production-grade DevOps pipelines in your own homelab-exactly the way real DevOps, SRE and Platform Engineering teams operate in 2025 and beyond. Designed for beginners, intermediate engineers and self-taught builders, this book cuts through the complexity and gives you a repeatable blueprint for building automated delivery systems from scratch. Every chapter is practical, every concept is backed by a lab and every tool is demonstrated with real workflows. By the end, your homelab transforms into a fully automated CI/CD and GitOps platform capable of building, testing, securing and deploying applications without manual intervention. You'll learn how to design pipelines that mirror real-world production environments, implement DevSecOps security scanning, automate infrastructure with Terraform, deploy microservices into K3s clusters and orchestrate continuous delivery using ArgoCD. This is not theory-these are the exact modern patterns used by cloud-native engineering teams worldwide. What You Will Learn - How DevOps pipelines work end-to-end in 2025: CI, CD, IaC, GitOps, DevSecOps and Observability - How to build a robust homelab environment using NUCs, Mini PCs, Proxmox, Pi 5, VLANs, Git servers and private registries - How to automate builds, tests, security scans and Docker image pipelines using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI or Jenkins - How to deploy and upgrade applications in a lightweight Kubernetes cluster (K3s) using Helm, Kustomize and GitOps best practices - How to manage infrastructure with Terraform, handle state safely and run IaC pipelines automatically - How to integrate ArgoCD for fully automated, self-healing deployments - How to monitor your services, pipelines and applications with Prometheus, Loki and Grafana - How to sign, secure and validate your software supply chain with SBOMs, Trivy, Snyk, Cosign and SLSA practices - How to complete a full end-to-end project that builds, secures and deploys a microservice automatically from commit to cluster Who This Book Is For - Homelab builders who want to automate everything - Self-taught developers and IT professionals transitioning into DevOps - DevOps beginners who want practical, modern skills-not old theories - Junior to mid-level engineers preparing for SRE, Platform or Cloud Engineering roles - Students and hobbyists who want a real-world DevOps playground without cloud bills - Professionals who want to simulate enterprise-grade CI/CD and GitOps pipelines locally Hands-On From Start to Finish From your first pipeline to a complete GitOps-driven Kubernetes deployment, every skill you learn builds toward the final capstone: an automated system that tests, scans, builds, signs, provisions infrastructure, deploys to K3s and monitors everything automatically. If you want to truly understand DevOps-not just read about it-this is the book you've been waiting for. Unlock the full power of modern automation, build production-grade pipelines at home and gain the skills used by top DevOps teams across the world. Your homelab is now your personal cloud. Your pipeline is your engineering engine. Let's build it-step by step, the modern way.
