So this is my “testing” phase as we are building the dream home currently and the main purpose will be for Smart home / Automation via Home assistant.

In this current set up i am running;

  • Proxmox hypervisor “Supermicro Server”
    • Home Assistant Virtual Machine
    • Ubuntu 20.04 LTS virtual machine with Docker + Docker Compose.
      • Portainer - to give me a GUI interface.
      • NGINX - proxy to allow administration and Home assistant to the outside world.
      • PI-Alert - to monitor what is on the network and find IP addresses.
      • Unifi Controller - to manage the unifi range.
      • Guacamole - Provide 1 solution to administer SSH, VNC etc.
      • Uptime Kuma - Monitoring states of dockers and virtual machines “soon will configure alerts”
      • Vaultwarden - Password manager.
      • Linkwarden - bookmarking tool.
      • Exclidraw - made that pretty picture and others.
      • Flame - a dashboard for shortcuts to all my services.
  • Windows 10 “NAS” (will rebuild to somthing else)
    • Plex
    • All ARR’s to acquire media to plex for streaming around the house.
  • Unraid “Daily Box”
    • Network Shares.
    • 2x Windows 10 clients

So i have been changing Dockers as i find better ones that suit my case, style and wanted to see what you guys think about the selected tools?

What Dockers do you think are better in your opinion and why?

    It comes down to what the hardware supports; Proxmox server allows spinning up virtual machines for testing without affecting production services.

    Unraid is our dedicated server for daily use, 1 physical hardware giving 2 virtual clients with passthrough to 2 sets of monitors, keyboard and mice.
