I built a €2/month DevOps stack (Gitea + Jenkins + Nexus)
I’ve been running a homelab for a while and wanted to see how far I could push it.
So I ended up building a small shared DevOps environment with:
- Gitea (git hosting)
- Jenkins (CI/CD)
- Nexus (artifact repository)
I also experimented with hosting small APIs + databases for lightweight projects.
The goal:
Make something cheap and simple for indie developers who don’t want to manage infrastructure.
Pricing is intentionally low (€2–€9/month), since it’s running on my own hardware.
Limitations:
- Residential connection (not for high traffic)
- Storage and repo limits
- Best-effort uptime
Biggest challenges so far:
- resource isolation
- preventing abuse
- storage cleanup policies
Would you trust something like this for small projects?
What would you improve?
