- home-lab — Proxmox VE hypervisors running Debian, Ubuntu, Alpine, and FreeBSD; TrueNAS Scale storage with geo-redundant backups. A permanent testbed for services.
- arm-fleet — Mass-device testing cluster for automation at scale: 150+ CPU cores and 200 GB RAM across 100+ ARM, RISC-V, and x86 boards.
Research
A Comparison of Pre-Built Hypervisors
SUNY Poly · Independent Study · 2017
Benchmarked Proxmox VE, XenServer, Hyper-V, and VMware ESXi against a bare-metal baseline across 14 Dell servers. Proxmox came out ahead — top scores on over half the benchmarks, the most robust installer, and the richest feature set.
Building an ARM-based Datacenter
SUNY Poly · Independent Study · 2017
Built a small datacenter from ~18 heterogeneous ARM single-board computers running LDAP, DNS, mail, and web apps, to see what enterprise services commodity ARM could deliver. Conclusion: the consumer ARM ecosystem was still too fractured to rely on — though a few boards (Odroid XU4, Udoo Quad) held up well throughout.
