Network architecture — Lucidchart to PlantUML C4

Tue, 06 Sep 2022 10:00:00 -0400

I’ve recently embarked on a journey to overhaul my home network setup. The transition from Draw.io to PlantUML C4 for creating deployment diagrams has been a game-changer. 🏡

PlantUML C4 offers a text-based 📝approach that integrates seamlessly with version control systems, making it an ideal tool for infrastructure as code (IaC)🏗️ .

I am also moving to Cloudflare for DNS management ✅ I gonna also use Terraform and Github action as CD🔁

Introduction

Welcome to a new chapter in my blog where I dive into the intricacies of building a robust home networking system. As a software engineer with a passion for networking protocols and efficient computing, I’ve embarked on a journey to design a system that balances performance, security, and cost-effectiveness. This post will detail my experiences and the technical decisions I made along the way.

Embracing the Challenge of Home Networking

My interest in networking began during my academic years, where I learned about various protocols such as IP, VPN, and IP7. Motivated by the high costs of cloud computing, I set out to build a home-based system. My goal was to use older computers, minimizing expenses on hardware and online services, while still achieving a high degree of functionality and efficiency.
