## Why I Built This
|
||||
|
||||
I work on the Digital Team at GE Aerospace building data pipelines and dashboards for industrial systems.
|
||||
I'm a DevOps and Cloud Infrastructure Engineer currently on the Digital Team at GE Aerospace building data pipelines and dashboards for industrial systems.
|
||||
|
||||
But Ced's NOC didn't start there.
|
||||
|
||||
It started about five years ago with an old Dell tower I found in the trash, a few cheap upgrades, and way too much curiosity. I didn't even know what a homelab was. I just knew I wanted to see if I could make it do something useful. That server became BigWorld — the primary node that still anchors this cluster today.

|
||||
|
||||
What started as a media server and a couple of small VMs went down a rabbit hole and never came back. Five years later it's a 6-node Proxmox cluster, a 12-node Raspberry Pi K3s cluster, a VLAN-segmented network, and a full observability stack running 24/7.

### Network & VLAN Architecture
|

|

All traffic runs through a UniFi Dream Router with hard VLAN segmentation. The HomeLab VLAN is fully isolated from daily-use devices — the same network segmentation principle I apply to industrial OT/IT environments at work.
