This site is publicly hosted from Robert Langhorn's homelab — a hands-on learning environment focused on independence, privacy, and personal ownership of technology. It's powered by Proxmox VE, running multiple virtual machines across isolated VLANs. Networking is managed using pfSense on a Netgate 6100, with Layer 3 routing via a Unifi Enterprise switch and dual 10Gb SFP+ links. The system runs on an Intel Xeon processor with ECC memory, emphasizing reliability and fault tolerance at every level. All data is stored on a ZFS array, which ensures maximum data integrity through end-to-end checksumming, redundancy, and self-healing capabilities. This infrastructure allows Robert to simulate real-world systems, securely segment services, and build advanced self-hosted solutions without reliance on third-party platforms. It reflects a commitment to data sovereignty and significantly reduces the amount of personal data stored on third-party servers. The entire setup is powered by symmetrical gigabit fiber, providing fast, reliable connectivity for both public and private services.
Here you'll find access to Robert's business site, tools used by the Langhorn family, and a glimpse into his journey as an aspiring Linux system administrator. Services are delivered using HAProxy, Docker, WireGuard, and other open-source infrastructure — all maintained by Robert in his spare time.
Robert is thoroughly enjoying the deep dive into Linux — exploring its flexibility, power, and the control it offers over every layer of the system.
