anybody setup and use garagefs (https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/) cluster from your house? It looks pretty instresting. I have been debating on setting up s3 compatible storage for sometime and using something like s3drive app https://s3drive.app/ for file syncing, also have buckets for backups and what not. I have seen a few people use minio for this but garagefs looks to be a little simpler. now and days I try to go simple where I can as my time is limitted to fiddle with things when they brake.
What have been your experience with it? is it worth it?
I am gonna try and get a small setup going to play around with it and test it out for a bit and to see whats up before commiting to a multi Tb deployment.
I don’t like that garage requires manual intervention to upgrade, so I went with minio which can upgrade automatically. I have it deployed with docker, and I use watchtower to pull in upgrades automatically without intervention.
I do love minio. I have backups going into it, and I use it to host my static website blog too.
I’ve always seen these self hosted S3 API compatible services as something a developer would use for testing.
Could maybe simplify the solution with https://syncthing.net/ or https://restic.net/ for self hosted backups.
