Security, Monitoring & GitOps for Homelabs: Build Secure, Automated, and Observable Home Servers with Proxmox, Docker, and Kubernetes


Overview

Transform your homelab into an enterprise-grade platform that is secure, automated, and observable. Security, Monitoring & GitOps for Homelabs is the definitive hands-on guide for anyone serious about building a modern, production-ready homelab using Proxmox, Docker, and Kubernetes. This book takes you beyond tinkering - giving you the frameworks, workflows, and automation patterns used by professionals in real-world data centers and cloud environments. Inside, you will learn how to: Deploy and harden a Proxmox cluster with VLAN segmentation, backups, and high availability. Run Docker and Kubernetes workloads with secure images, RBAC, Pod Security Standards, and network isolation. Implement GitOps automation with FluxCD and ArgoCD, making Git your single source of truth for apps, policies, and secrets. Build a full observability stack with Prometheus, Grafana, and Loki to monitor metrics, logs, and traces across your homelab. Integrate security monitoring with Suricata, nftables, fail2ban, Kyverno, and OPA for true defense-in-depth. Design and test disaster recovery (DR) playbooks, including PBS backups, CSI snapshots, GitOps rollbacks, and automated restore drills. Complete a capstone project: a fully secured, automated, and observable homelab that mirrors enterprise-grade architecture. Each chapter includes step-by-step practice labs, CLI templates, Infrastructure-as-Code examples, and security checklists so you can deploy, break, fix, and validate your homelab with confidence. Whether you are a homelab enthusiast, an IT professional preparing for DevOps/SRE roles, or a security engineer mastering GitOps and Kubernetes hardening, this book provides the complete blueprint for running a modern homelab that rivals production clusters. Take your homelab to the next level - and prove to yourself (and future employers) that you can build, secure, monitor, and recover a real infrastructure from the ground up.
