Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I have a LTE Backhaul,but admittedly if the firewall itself craps out I would also be offline - but I can at least reboot it via a plain old GSM power plug. That thing does not directly reboot the firewall,though, but brings up a old raspberry (usb boot,I don't trust sdcards) which then checks if outside connectivity is still available (so if the GSM power plug gets compromised it's not an issue) and if not tries a shutdown or,if that is unsucessful, a powercut of the firewall. If that also doesn't work it triggers a dry contact in the GSM plug which leads to the plug sending out a SMS so I know I am fucked and need to get someone with a key to the rack.
Wow.
Ok, that sounds like that has evolved over some time!
My company is a part of critical infrastructure and we provide consulting in disasters (e.g. how to get a hospital back up and running). So we fall under European legislation to have certain precautions. And as I colocate in my companys rack...it's easier. As the rack is in a room I rent to my company. (We are small and I am the founder,that makes it easier)
But yeah, we put a bit of thought in it. Waiting for Iris2 finally materialise so I can get rid of LTE finally.
