A chronicle of my 2025 homelab journey, showcasing the evolution of the After Dark Enterprise environment by sysadminafterdark. It highlights the lessons learned, hardware upgrades, and enterprise-style practices I applied to refine an (almost) production-grade homelab infrastructure.
After Dark Enterprise, engineered by sysadminafterdark and monitored by mandolinsara, was founded during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic on November 27, 2020. We had a Dell R710, Supermicro 847, a couple of rusty HP switches and a dream to bring batteries included solutions to the home enterprise.
