Finally got VictoriaLogs set up in my homelab!— got some proper log monitoring in place at last. Feels good to see everything in one place!

6+ months into my DevSecOps role—some days feel like this picture. Very uncomfortable 😅. But the knowledge and experience I’m gaining? 100% worth it.

Jumped into networking last night and deployed MetalLB to my cluster. Now my apps all have external IPs. 🎉

Added VictoriaMetrics K8s Stack to my home lab for monitoring! 🚀 It was tricky as the chart installs multiple components, and I had difficulty understanding each one's function.
Lesson Learned: Read the docs 😅
