How in terms of "how did you do it" i.e. a guide a wiki etc. How to you maintain it? How do you provide security and how do you maintain it? Do you host on bare metal at home? Do you use a cloud service? If the former, how do you connect to it when you aren't at home?

I realize that's a lot to ask, but I have some down time and want to hear everyone's full viewpoints
