mymh.dev — Hybrid Homelab & GitOps Platform

Author: Niklas Häll (mymh) — https://git.mymh.dev/mymh Home repo: https://git.mymh.dev/mymh/homelab-docs

Self-hosted, EU-sovereign hybrid infrastructure for a personal web platform. On-prem source of truth (Forgejo + PostgreSQL) drives GitOps-managed Kubernetes clusters in the cloud (Talos, vCluster, ArgoCD). Built as a portfolio project to demonstrate DevSecOps, multi-cluster Kubernetes, observability (incl. DORA metrics), and controlled failover.

Core values

• EU sovereignty — EU-based infrastructure and services only
• Data security — least privilege, encryption in transit, minimal public exposure
• GitOps & DevSecOps — everything declarative, Git as control plane
• Open source first — CNCF/community-governed tooling, LTS versions preferred
• Energy-conscious design — power draw factors into technical choices
