Traefik Proxy 3.4 “Chaource” arrives with distributed rate-limiting via Redis, P2C load balancing, custom server URLs, and more polished features.

Protected my website https://hofstede.io with Anubis (https://anubis.techaro.lol) to keep AI scraper bots out. It uses a proof-of-work algoritm to filter out some bots.
Was rather easy to integrate into my setup with Traefik and Podman 
I wanted to test Gemini's capabilities to help me build some basic Traefik configurations. I started the prompt with " I have a question about traefik configurations. Which version of gemini is better for that."
It pointed me away from Gemini altogether and said to RTFM or Reddit.
Is AI becoming aware it's not suited for actual complex tasks and to leave cognitive function to real people?

Cut Kubernetes weight in your homelab: one Podman net per app, shared *dmz* net for Traefik, zero manual proxy edits!

Pour remplacer Nginx comme reverse proxy, vous recommandez :
I declare partial success with much more aggressive connection, request, and transfer rate throttling in the embedded #nginx instance that serves my static page (plus the dynamic link maze that caught the stupid "AI" scraper bots...) behind #traefik (causing the TLS termination part to be overloaded and blocking authenticated users from legitimate access).
https://www.mayrhofer.eu.org/post/defenses-against-abusive-ai-scrapers/nginx-default.conf is the current rate limiting config, https://www.mayrhofer.eu.org/post/defenses-against-abusive-ai-scrapers has the explanations.
Something like https://blog.lrvt.de/configuring-crowdsec-with-traefik/ will probably have to be the next level of escalation to deal with the issue on a global level.
Even More #OpenTelemetry - #Kubernetes special.
* From Docker Compose to #Helm
* Helm subcharts for the win
* Kubernetes topology with #vCluster
* #Traefik as an Ingress Controller
* Exposing services and the Ingress class
* A touch of the #OpenTelemetryCollector
* Initializing PostgreSQL with data
* Kubernetes instrumentation of pods
* Bonus: A new #Quarkus component
Interested in #containers, #docker, #OCI and #guix #declarative #configuration?
Watch Giacomo Leidi's talk about self-hosting @forgejo using Guix's container backed configuration. Check it out 
His Gocix project shows how to bring together container-based software while benefiting from the resilience of declarative configuration! He has services for #prometheus #grafana #traefik #bonfire and more!
Want #cloudnative but with the power of #declarative configuration? The recoverability of #transactions for system configuration?
Wednesday it's the online #guix meet-up! With a great talk by @paulbutgold
about running docker / oci containers using the Guix configuration system.
His Gocix project has #prometheus, #grafana, #forgejo, #conduit and #traefik examples.
Meet-up details:
Check out this insightful 
video, in which I show you how to set up a self-hosted AI platform in your HomeLab using :
- Ollama
- OpenWebUI
- Traefik

Finally took some time to upgrade Traefik v2 to v3 and clean up my config; Actually was much easier than expected , almost no problems.
I have started to migrate from #CloudFlare Tunnel to a VPS + #Tailscale setup. Connection is already established, now I have to decide whether to use #Traefik + #CrowdSec or #BunkerWeb to protect my public Web-Services.
It took me a while but I've finally figured out how to use #traefik . Time to self host all the things!
Just blogged: Migrating off Microsoft Onedrive - https://alex.dandrea.io/2025/02/23/migrating-off-microsoft-onedrive/
#Traefik v3.3 - codename "Saint-Nectaire" - is here!
This release focuses on 2 critical areas:
Observability capabilities Improved documentation structure
These upgrades make Traefik v3.3 even more powerful for platform engineers tackling complex cloud-native environments.

El disparador inicial para automatizar estas cosas puede haber sido la pereza, pero al mismo tiempo es seguir bajando prácticas hacia los SMB (o MSME).
Si bien es algo técnico, al final lo que se gana es seguridad, estandarización y tiempo (lo cual ha de tener impacto en los costos).
Tener infraestructura lista para funcionar para un pequeño merchant no tiene que ser, por defecto, un problema de costos o de tiempos.

@Liaely Don't overthink the hardware $$$. The "Servethehome" site has a bunch of articles under #ProjectTinyMiniMicro about repurposing super cheap corporate surplus desktop PC's as servers.
$$-wise, one of the best investments would really just be making sure you're using NVMe storage.
Tech-wise, get comfortable with #Docker and #DockerCompose.
Also get comfortable with a reverse proxy that you're going to get a lot of use out of. #Traefik and #nginx are really good ones that many tend to gravitate to.
#GoToSocial might be the easiest one to deploy. #Mastodon and #Pixelfed might be some of the hardest. #lemmy & #peerTube are somewhere in between in difficulty to set up.
I have some (non-enshittified / non-monetized) how-to's for deploying some #selfHosted services on Docker if it helps. magnus919.com blog.
But really just get very comfortable with Docker and your reverse proxy. If you do both of those things, the rest becomes a lot easier. Traefik has more of a learning curve maybe than nginx but scales up really nicely, so once you've got it figured out it is ridiculously easy to add more services to it and get https "for free".
