"I am REALLY happy with the state of my server!".
As a NAS, it does everything I want it to.
As a compartmentalized application solution, all of my Docker containers are doing everything I want them to.
As a visualization platform, all of my VMs are doing exactly what I want them to.
Looking toward the future...
I am excited about some of the KVM and Docker enhancements that are coming...especially with OVMF and Docker networking. This will give me a chance to break things horribly, learn, fix, tweak, and be happy again.
Expect another post 6 months from now.
