What Beelab actually solves
Five problems that kill a homelab, solved before you boot it.
A node dying. A pipeline you cannot trust. A rack you cannot reach from the road. A backup that has never been restored. An AI that ships every prompt to someone else. Pick a tab, walk the four layers from pain to fix.
A · When something breaks
One box goes down. Everything else keeps running.
Maintenance windows, kernel patches, and the random reboot at 3am stop being downtime. Quorum, an encrypted mesh, and HA failover keep the platform alive while you fix the dead host.
Layer 01 · The pain
A single-node homelab fails on the first reboot. Maintenance windows take the whole stack down. Patch a kernel, lose the dashboards, lose the AI gateway, lose the file share, all at once.

Federation mesh
Tailscale + WireGuardCluster healthy. Run the failover demo to watch the workload migrate.
Encrypted meshWireGuard end-to-end. Curve25519 key agreement, ChaCha20-Poly1305 authenticated encryption.
Verified supply chainContainer signing (Cosign default) signs every image. An admission controller (Kyverno default, OPA Gatekeeper alternative) refuses any unverified image at admission.
