Finally, after several months this website is up and running again!

My homelab has completely changed, but the reason why it initially went offline is because of my failing CI installation. I was using Concourse CI which I was initially interested in due to the reproducible nature of its builds using containers. However, for some reason pipelines were sporadically getting stuck when I reboot the virtual machine it was running on. The fix was very annoying: I had to re-create the pipelines manually (which feels very backwards for a CI/CD system!) Additionally, my virtual machine setup back then was also quite fragile and I decided to get rid of that as well.

I have learned that having an escape hatch to deploy something is probably a good idea 😅 Expect a new overview of my homelab soon, in the same vein as [this post from last year]({% post_url infrastructure-snapshot/2023-08-13-infrastructure-snapshot %})!
