I just spent a good chunk of today migrating some services onto new docker containers in Proxmox LXCs.

As I was updating my network diagram, I was struck by just how many services, hosts, and LXCs I'm running, so counted everything up.

  • 116 docker containers
    • Running on 25 docker hosts
    • 50 are the same on each docker host - Watchtower and Portainer agent
  • 38 Proxmox LXCs (19 are docker hosts)
  • 8 physical servers
  • 7 VLANs
  • 5 SSIDs
  • 2 NASes

So, it got me wondering about the size of other people's homelabs. What are your stats?

What I’m more interesting in is what is it that you selfhost to have so many docker containers?

Well, lots of services are stacks of containers - Immich has 6 containers and Piped has 5, for example - so it's easy for the container count to get up there.

Other "services" are groups of containers/hosts to provide a complete capability - Home Assistant; esphome; Node-RED, for example. Then there's just the stuff that, due to my desire for loose coupling, are spread across multiple docker hosts/containers - 5 x Sonarr/Radarr instances, for example.
