    Hi everyone! I’m a big fan of self hosting :)

    I have a dedicated server in Hetzner

    • Intel Core i7-8700
    • 2x SSD M.2 NVMe 1 TB
    • 4x RAM 32768 MB DDR4

    Been running it for almost a year without any issues. I host several things there. I’m using caprover.com for managing my deployments since I contributed on the project a few years ago and it’s so easy to get started.

    Some of the things I host there:

    • nextcloud
    • MySQL
    • Postgres
    • privatebin
    • some Hasura instances
    • Kuma (for monitoring)
    • Browserless Chrome (which I use for web scrapping)
    • Plausible (analytics)
    • A private Ragnarok Online Server

    I have setup a cron job that dumps my all of my databases (Postgres and MySQL) to my Google drive every midnight.

    Hope this can help as inspiration for anyone else. Cheers!

      Thanks for you detailing your experience.I am very interested in CapRover! I do not quite understand databases and Docker containers though. The one click WordPress deployment has a db version. What of Moodle, Nextcloud or Invoice Ninja though? Do they need their own containerised databases or can I just use MyPHPadmin to import all my current Mysql databases from my current shared hosting in the same db once the WP one click install is done? Also, would it be possible to setup a cron job to backup to a storage drive plugged into a home router? Thanks!
