Personal Server

In university, we were given some old servers, and we installed some services on it. This inspired me to do the same at home: with a special small computer with an Intel N100 CPU and 2 x 1TB hard drives, it is possible to have similar services at home!

I was able to install my own git thanks to Forgejo, an open-source alternative to GitHub which allows me to store my projects with the guarantee that years of work won’t disappear because of some laws that do not concern me.

University AI Server

In my final year at university, we received some servers, but one was special: it contained an NVIDIA RTX 6000 ADA, a name that would make any gamer have a heart attack if they learned its power (and its price).

This was a special card made for huge calculations and artificial intelligence: thanks to its 40GB of VRAM, it could handle a huge model, from a simple large language model to video generation.

University Servers

This year, a company upgraded their server and gave the old ones to our university, which ended up being used by our classes to train on networking and on services deployment.

We thought about how we could connect them. One was going to be our main docker server to install service such as an LDAP server, a Nextcloud, a Forgejo, a Matrix server, a Nginx to link everything and some other niche service such as a Satisfactory and Minecraft server.
