+| NOC Dashboard | https://noc.chasedumphord.com | Live infrastructure visibility — 28 systems |
+

+
+## 📊 Ced's NOC — Live Infrastructure Observability
+
+Real-time network operations center dashboard monitoring 28 homelab systems across 6 infrastructure layers.
+
+### How It Works
+
+```
+Proxmox Biggie (Cron every 5min)
+  → noc_update.py pings 28 systems
+  → writes data/noc-status.json
+  → git push to ced-portfolio
+  → GitHub Pages deploys (~30s)
+  → Browser fetches every 30s
+  → Live dashboard updates
+```
+
+### Systems Monitored
+
+- **6-node Proxmox Cluster** — BigWorld, Biggie, Snoop, TooShort, Tupac, DrDre
+- **12-node K3s Cluster** — 3 control plane (django-1/2/3) + 9 workers (ingress, data, monitoring groups)
+- **TrueNAS** — Network attached storage
+- **Nginx Proxy Manager** — Reverse proxy layer
+- **Prometheus + Grafana + Uptime Kuma** — Full observability stack (Prometheus actively scraping)
+- **Dashy + Home Assistant + PrimeStation** — Services layer
+- **APRS iGate x2** — RF edge systems (home + mobile)
+
+### Automation
+
+- Script: `~/scripts/noc_update.py` running on Biggie (`10.10.30.192`)
+- Cron: `*/5 * * * *` — every 5 minutes
+- Log: `/var/log/noc_update.log`
+- Auth: GitHub Personal Access Token via baked remote URL

+
+## 🏗️ Infrastructure Overview
+
+| Layer | Systems | Count |
+|-------|---------|-------|
+| Compute | Proxmox VE cluster | 6 nodes |
+| Orchestration | K3s Kubernetes | 12 nodes |
+| Storage | TrueNAS | 1 |
+| Networking | Nginx Proxy Manager, Cloudflare Tunnels, UniFi VLANs | 4 VLANs |
+| Monitoring | Prometheus, Grafana, Uptime Kuma, Custom NOC | 4 services |
+| Edge | APRS iGate (home + mobile), Direwolf TNC | 2 nodes |
