Home Lab Plan
Phase 1 — establish control
- Define production vs testing boundaries
- Adopt a V1 remote-access model with Tailscale for admin and Cloudflare for user-facing app access
- Define the backup strategy and restore expectations
- Inventory the current workloads more precisely
- Avoid adding many new services until the platform is clearer
Phase 2 — stabilize core services
- Confirm where drive/files should live short-term
- Confirm where photo management should live short-term
- Decide whether Synology remains the production home for some services during transition
- Introduce identity/access management only once the service map is clear
Phase 3 — controlled evolution
- Evaluate Nextcloud migration path
- Evaluate Immich migration path
- Evaluate Authentik or equivalent
- Review whether Proxmox should be the central app platform
- Revisit edge/remote-access complexity and reduce overlap where possible
What Orik should track
- infra changes
- service locations
- architecture decisions
- backup changes
- migration plans
- risks / TODOs
Current concern
The likely failure mode is not lack of capability; it is too many overlapping tools and unclear boundaries.
