> docker compose pull && docker compose up -d is a fine command if you are SSH’d into the host. At customer scale—dozens of self-managed environments behind firewalls, each with its own change-control process—that manual process doesn’t scale.
This is how I self host all my home services (Home Assistant, PFSense, Frigate etc), I do not for the life of me understand why so many folks doing self-hosted services for themselves put them on the public internet.
Caddy will even do fully automated valid TLS certificates for private IP ranges via DNS ACME challenge for free etc with renewals handled, so all my internal self-hosted sites have properly terminated TLS too, accessible by connected VPN clients.
It's funny that for many of us in our day job, we stand up private services behind a VPN all the time so only work clients can access it, but when self hosting don't bother with a simple wireguard/tailscale config etc.
A lot of people using docker or even k8s don‘t know that by default, a service is available to all other services via the service name defined in the compose file or your yaml specs. Docker compose builds an implicit bridge network. Most internet tutorials are wrong here and bing ports publicly to your ipv4 interface. So if you follow them you‘ll accidentally expose your database or similar to the public web
Comments like these are so incredible far fetched from reality. Are you really going to implement your own PyTorch? Why even compare your cute examples to enterprise solutions?
As you have been reminded of in other comments, there is no "enough battery backup". These weather events aren't exactly rare either. Germany for example has on average multiple episodes of both subnormal wind and sun energy production in high-pressure systems.
Did you read my comment? 10% budget for gas backup buys you 35 days, if on those days there is 0% other production (extremely unlikely). Seems pretty conservative to me?
> There must be a behavioral pattern there...
The pattern is that your comment is very far from reality.
