About Docker Homelab
What this site covers
Docker Homelab covers running containers on hardware you own. It works through the parts that break first: networking, persistence and update discipline, alongside the service selections that make a home server useful rather than merely busy.
- Compose stacks and file layout
- Reverse proxies and TLS termination
- macvlan and bridge networking
- CPU and memory limits, and why they matter at home
- Choosing hardware and self-hosted services

How these articles are produced
Articles here are researched from primary sources: vendor and project documentation, published standards and specifications, research papers and preprints, and measurements published by whoever took them. Drafts are produced with AI assistance and then edited against those cited sources before anything is published.
No article on this site is based on first-hand testing in a private lab, and nothing here should be read as a measurement report of its own. Where a number appears, it comes from a source that is named, so you can check the original instead of taking this site's word for it.
Everything is published under a single editorial byline. That byline is a publishing identity for the site, not a claim about a named individual, and it does not carry professional credentials.
Corrections
Corrections are welcome. If something here is wrong, out of date, or attributed to the wrong source, email editor@dockerhomelab.com with the page address and what it should say. Substantive corrections are made in the article itself rather than quietly dropped.
How this site is funded
Some product links on this site are Amazon affiliate links. As an Amazon Associate this site earns from qualifying purchases, at no additional cost to you. Product recommendations are drawn from published specifications and manufacturer documentation, not from commission rates and not from first-hand testing. The disclosure page sets this out in full.
