## Start tossing my homelab
> The initial reason
I want to start tossing `homelab` is because the cost of cloud servers is relatively expensive. As an individual user, without a business model, I want to save my budget as much as possible and use open source Github works to build a service for my own use.
After learning about `frp`, an open source intranet penetration tool, I tried it and found that it can well resist the interference and idleness of broadband operators. Wait for the non-dedicated server hardware to be used effectively.

## Hosting and configuration
> I purchased 3 mini hosts of about 145$.
The mac mini and desktop hosts at home are productivity tools and cannot be used as servers, but professional servers , and there are power and noise problems, so focus on `mini pc`:
- cpu performance can be used,
- memory preferably > 16gb
- hard disk capacity is best 512gb
On Chinese e-commerce sites, there have been many years like this I bought a total of 3 mini pcs, and the table is organized as follows:
| Website | Brand | Pictures | Price | Amazon Price | Aliexpress Price |
| ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------ | ------------ | ---------------- |
| Xiaomi Youpin | `Ningmei` | <img src="https://hackrobot-1258475618.cos.ap-shenzhen-fsi.myqcloud.com/202209041500584.png" title="" alt="" width="197" > | 174$ | TRIGKEY 199& | |
| JD.com | `konka` | <img src="https://hackrobot-1258475618.cos.ap-shenzhen-fsi.myqcloud.com/202209041502087.png" title="" alt ="" width="202"> | 145$ | KAMRUI 199$ | GK3V 125$ |

## Server deployment

will be replaced someday in the future, after all, there may be privacy issues, or other indescribable surveillance
