#Docker qcow2 vs raw software#

I wonder, where would you get that Ryzen 7 5800U from? Isn't that a non-socketable BGA package meant for notebooks? If I had to build a new system right now, I would spontaneously go for a regular Ryzen 5 (maybe Ryzen 7, if the additional cores are really needed for VMs and such) and undervolt it to make it run more efficient. Despite the poor specs, it is powerful enough to serve multiple users simultaneously (DAAP, video streaming or other I/O tasks) while still managing all the network and IoT stuff in the background. I have some self-hosted web services running and use it as a DNS server / firewall, NAS for media streaming and as a personal 'cloud' storage for four household members. It hosts about a dozen of Docker containers and a bunch of natively installed services for everything home automation, data collection and IoT. Neither OpenMediaVault (Debian-based), nor Ubuntu Server were causing any hardware-related issues. I bought it as a budget solution to learn about Linux and server stuff and never intended it to last for so long, but it's still keeping up just fine.

I'm still rocking a cute, little AMD Athlon 5350 APU (2GHz, 4C/4T, 15W TDP limit) with just 4GB DDR3. Sound reasonable? I've shied from consolidating like this in the past because I didn't want a massive computer throwing off lots of heat, but now it finally seems like it may be possible to have it all and yet not suffer from heat stroke.ДЄnyone here done this already? Any advice on optimal configuration?Д¬an anyone here name a better CPU for a home environment? Or is this 'the One' to get? Just one UPS and one set of backups, so administration is easier than a bunch of separate computers sprinkled all over the place. Use Linux BTFRS for a non-corruptible file system and snapshots.

It's obviously overkill if all you want to do is run Home Assistant, but the idea is that you can run HA and whatever else you want (MQTT, node red, SQL, graphina, firewalls, VPN, pie holes, HDTV recording, media server, file server, home security cameras, AI, compilers, software development environments, web browsing, etc.), all with plenty of oomph and with better security than, say, running on a single instance of ordinary Windows 10. The only thing I'm not sure about is how well Linux will run on it? At least in the past Linux always seemed to favor an Intel platform for 'no hassles.' Will it be an issue? it won't waste a ton of energy running 24/7, and it won't roast you. It will have 8 cores and 16 threads, and even good single threaded benchmark speed, yet it will have a TDP of just 15 watts on average, so you won't need to run the air conditioner just for it. I think it may be the soon to be released AMD Ryzen 7 5800U.
