Show HN: Homerun Desktop: Self-hosting for professionals with deadlines
We are rapidly approaching the beta release of Homerun Desktop and thought it would be a good time to solicit feedback before marketing to a wider audience. We are also looking for intrepid individuals interested in evaluating Homerun Desktop and providing feedback.
- garganzol 1y agoThe problem with that is going to be the same as with other similar projects: single instance only. This puts the projects into a desert valley: from one hand, they are interesting to professionals; from another, the absence of horizontal scaling makes them just a toy. Meanwhile, home users for whom single instance would be enough cannot care less about this kind of technology.
- fractalnetworks 1y agoWe're working on migrating our abstractions to k3s, for now the system is powered by docker compose. Wouldn't be that much work to move from DR to HA deployments. Thanks for the feedback.
- fathermarz 1y agoNot sure if the first video demo matches the hero statement. Professionals with deadlines doesn’t really map to “here is how to start a Minecraft server”
- fractalnetworks 1y agoFair point, what should we feature in the hero video?
- FloatArtifact 1y agoI don't see any robust backup for restore mechanisms.
- fractalnetworks 1y agoWe replicate incremental BTRFS snapshots behind the scenes. Planning on adding snapshot management UI soon.
- FloatArtifact 1y agoThank you for the update. Is the backup or start mechanism per application or some sort of larger dataset?
