Back in 2020, a three-part blog series was published on building your own Virtual Datacenter (vDC).

While the detailed configuration instructions are outdated meanwhile (the images offer a lot more options today than back then), you can read part 1, part 2 and part 3 as a refresher.
This guide introduces an ansible script to automate the provisioning of a #vDC for your applications.

In addition to building a vDC with consul and nomad, it offers enhancements over the original blog series, such as the inclusion of monitoring and alerting, wireguard mesh networking, along with openldap and mariadb instances, and nginx nomad jobs.

The target audience for this post is comfortable installing #FreeBSD on #servers or #virtual machines and comfortable enough to rename the default network interface, or to find out how to do so.
