Just finished designing a custom out-of-band management plane for my homelab.
All built around 3 open-source Armsom @armsom_jackson Sige7 boards — next step: turning the prototype into proper HATs and writing the control software 🚀

Creating a management plane for the Armsom Sige7
Building an Out-of-Band Management Plane for My Homelab My current homelab consists of three Armsom Sige7 nodes. Having multiple identical boards allows me to experiment with different configurations, test deployment strategies, and simulate small-scale distributed environments. What makes the Armsom Sige7 especially interesting is that it’s open-source hardware. This gives me full visibility into the board layout, which opens the door to deeper hardware-level integrations that are normally difficult—or impossible—on closed systems.
