Building Dedicated Server home in India

    Building a home server in India is definitely doable! I'd start by figuring out what you want to run, because that determines whether you actually need dedicated server hardware or can get away with a spare PC.

    For virtualization, Proxmox is a great starting point. You can run separate VMs for websites, game servers, storage, and other services. Just make sure you account for power consumption, cooling, backups, and your ISP's upload speed.

    Networking is where things get interesting. If you want to access everything remotely, Tailscale or WireGuard can work well. If you're behind CGNAT, a small VPS can act as a relay, or you could use Cloudflare Tunnel for supported web services.

    Depending on what you're building, there are a few other options worth exploring:

    • Websites and web apps: Self-host with a reverse proxy, or use affordable web hosting if you don't want to maintain the infrastructure.
    • Game servers: Host locally if your hardware and connection can handle it, or use managed game hosting for easier deployment and better uptime.
    • Public IPv4 connectivity: Tunnel-based Serververse Transit IP can route a dedicated IPv4 to your home hardware. Serververse offers this alongside DDoS protection through Serververse Shield.
    • More serious workloads: If you need reliable power, redundant connectivity, and better uptime, renting a dedicated server or colocating your own hardware may make more sense than running everything at home.

    Personally, I'd build the homelab first and move only the workloads that need better uptime or connectivity elsewhere. A hybrid setup can be a lot more practical than trying to make your home connection do everything.

    What kind of workloads are you planning to run, and what's your budget for hardware and monthly electricity? Those two things will make a big difference to the architecture I'd recommend.

    Please post the link of this USD 67 server of OVH India. Somehow, I can only find Rs. 13k as min offer for their dedicated units

    Thanks.
