This question is mainly targeted (and hopefully will be answered by) @LTS_Tom but open to others as well.
I’m in the planning stages of building out a new XCP NG server and will be spinning up a few VMs, for now will be a unifi controller, invoiceninja, and bitwarden. Will be moving to self hosting these items.
@LTS_Tom how are you currently doing this for your self hosted business items. Are you using HAProxy (or some other reverse proxy on your stack) or have you switched over to Cloudflare Tunnels? Any rhyme/reason as to your choice or which you’d pick.
Many, many thanks from a huge fan!
We use HAProxy and NGINX for our reverse proxy setups. While Cloudflare Tunnels is a popular solution for people who don’t want to host all of their infrastructure, I generally don’t like proprietary systems dependent on third parties.
I agree with that sentiment about 3rd parties.
Do you use HAProxy and nginx together, one behind the other, or in separate stacks?
@LTS_Tom
I’ve watched a lot of your videos, especially on HAProxy, but don’t recall seeing any about nginx, at least not in detail. Do you have or know of any good videos that would help to replicate, in a sense, at least partially, your setup? I have a domain and server with xcp installed along with a couple vms for services for now. Just stumped on the next best move for the accessing from outside part.
Thanks for any help you can give!
I have only done videos on HAProxy but prior to the merger CNWR already had an NGINX setup they were using and we are still using.
Thanks Tom! Much appreciation for your feedback.
