The technology that quietly works for you.

Everything backed up, always reachable — and it looks after itself.

Your programs and data run around the clock. There are automatic backups and a protected login. A watchdog raises the alarm before anything breaks. You don't have to worry about a thing — it's simply there.

From everyday work

When a disk dies at night — and you only learn it from the report

Imagine a hard disk fails overnight. The system notices on its own, pulls in a second one in the background and keeps going. In the morning there's one line in the report — no downtime, no emergency call, no data loss. That's what the foundation is for.

How it fits together technically +

A self-hosted virtualization layer carries every service as an isolated container or VM. An encrypted mesh connects sites with no open ports to the internet, single sign-on bundles every login, and a three-tier monitoring stack (metrics, security events, logs) surfaces problems before they become visible. The key part: the whole estate is described as code and lives in Git — servers, services, access. Changes go through a pipeline, are cleanly versioned and reproducible at the push of a button; encrypted offsite backups keep everything safe automatically. If something fails, you rebuild it from the repository — no tribal knowledge in a few people's heads, no cloud lock-in. Even this website runs this way.

Technology used

What it's built on

Proxmox VE

The foundation: turns one server into many — your whole IT runs virtual, cleanly separated, movable any time.

Also used by: Open source from Vienna — in data centres worldwide.

Grafana

The cockpit: shows in real time whether everything's running — and alerts before things fail.

Also used by: The standard cockpit in monitoring stacks worldwide.

GitLab

Everything as code, traceably versioned — no more "only one colleague knows how it's set up".

Also used by: Used by governments and large enterprises worldwide.

WireGuard

Encrypts your sites into one private network — lean, fast, no open ports to the internet.

Also used by: Part of the Linux kernel — the basis of Cloudflare WARP.

Authentik (SSO)

One login for everything: central sign-on with two-factor, instead of ten passwords floating around.

Also used by: Open-source single sign-on.

Wazuh (SIEM)

Watches for attacks, unusual behaviour and compliance — the security hub that raises the alarm early.

Also used by: Open-source SIEM.

PostgreSQL

The database everything sits on — the reliable standard for 30+ years.

Also used by: Apple, Spotify and Instagram build on it.
