Story

I'm Ricard Bejarano, and together with O'Reilly, I'm writing The Homelab Handbook, the definitive guide to homelabbing and self-hosting.

To inspire readers, we want the last chapter to be a series of real world homelab examples, to show there's not one prescription for what a homelab is—a homelab is what you make it. As such, we're looking for homelabbers that would like to have their homelabs featured in the book. We're looking for variety, in hardware, software, and scale—from a single Raspberry Pi, to full-height racks in the basement—so don't be shy to share yours.

If you'd like to submit yours to be featured in the book, please complete the following form:

Form submission deadline is Apr 12th, 2026. We will reach out to all submitters shortly after that with a response on whether your homelab was selected or not. If we accept yours, you will be asked to share more details so I can write a proper section about it. Your answers below will not be published, they're only for selection purposes.
