I'm here because I love self-hosting and I want to meet others who love self-hosting as well. I'm new to using XCP-ng but I think I'll enjoy it, and I prefer virtual machines over Docker. I will be using Docker, but using Docker within a virtual machine will isolate it even further and layers are always healthy. I love Linux, but it'll be cool to try out Windows Hyper-V Server within a virtual machine as well. I'm down to chat with anyone about anything self-hosting, don't be shy.

Hello,
I'm a senior Linux sysadmin mainly using vmWare based solutions for my customers.
As a big fan of opensource and DIY my home lab is based on a KVM virtualization solution based on libvirt and a bunch of custom scripts that automate most of the things and runs pretty well.
I'm looking for a new solution that would allow me to use it as a home lab and at professional level and solution that could also be used via infrastructure as code solutions (i.e terraform/cloud-init/ansible/puppet, etc).
I'm currently discovering xcp-ng and xen-orchestra that both look great.
I would have
somemany questions very soon... -
Welcome @mco-system !

I'm a broad spectrum hobbyist when it comes to software and technology. At first I started with my own blog and using a vps on digital ocean, and quickly became interested in the devOps side of web development. I moved onto Continuous Integration (Atlassian Bamboo), then I was interested in Vagrant, provisioning with puppet & chef. I work in manufacturing, but I have a long list of projects for my personal home/office lab. Cheers!

Hi All,
I started my career in the 80's modifying Bulletin Board dial-up systems and migrated towards telecom TCP/IP over RS422 applications and was hooked on telecom ever since. At 56 I am still going strong with tech and probably will never stop as it is my passion.
I am a developer/architect of DPDK and VPP applications, I am now looking into XO as I am curious about passthrough capabilities and I am currently testing various providers of level 1 tech.
My long term focus is VNF capacity and Throughput, I am working through solutions for Data centres that have capacity problems.
Look forward to interacting with everyone.

Hello !
I'm a senior linux/unix administrator/system engineer and I'm also working with networks (L2/L3).
I first started using virtualization in 2006 on a Debian/xen basis, then Xenserver 5.5 -> 6.0.2 -> 6.2 -> 7.2 -> xcp-ng ...
I've also been using xen-orchestra since the first public version. -

Hi!
I'm a Citrix engineer working for an MSP in the UK, just started using XCP-NG for my home Citrix lab as XenServer had issues with my Lenovo M80q mini system, so I came across XCP-NG 8.3 and it works a charm so far.
Got an MCS deployment working with no issues yet.
Thought id stop by and say hello while I read through all the useful posts on here.

Hello @MichaelMyers84 !
We'd like to get an official support for Citrix things on top of XCP-ng (since it's the same API than XS), maybe in the future

Hello, I am a systems engineer for a mid sized ISP. I have been mostly a VMware/Vsphere admin going back to 2007 back in my enterprise days. Even played with XEN project a bit prior to jumping into ESX. I started using xcp-ng in my personal lab to prototype cloud-init scripts, Ansible playbooks and other IaC toolstacks, and to have a solid reliable virtualization stack to run my hosted apps, email, and websites. Thanks to the xcp-ng team for such a stable and easy to use system! The support is top notch!

Thank you @dj423 ! We hope to convince more and more VMware users to make the transition, there's a good momentum around this recently

Hello!
I'm system and network engineer.
I have started work with xenserver since 2013 (I think it was opensource 6.2 version).
In 2015 I started deploing my own control panel for hosting based on xenserver.After Citrix closed free version I started to move to XCP-ng.
Now I'm playing with xcp-ng + GPU, testing performance in different scenarios and sharing on this forum
I believe that knowledge should be open so that everyone can move forward faster. -
