Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

OK, I've read the wiki entry but I still don't understand what KVM is, or why it's needed. The last time I visited a data center - every server rack came with a laptop-esque looking control unit. What problem does KVM comes to solve? What does this invention improve upon a traditional KVM?
This is not the invention of an IP KVM, those are old. This product just offers the functionality of an IP KVM for very little money.
It lets you remotely control a server as if you were sitting in front of a screen and keyboard directly attached to it.
Afaik this is for servers without a built-in KVM like e.g. self built servers or repurposed workstations.
