How will I know how many services I can run on my self hosted server? - eviltoast

Hi y’all. I’ve got an Intel Nuc 10 here. I want to run a few apps on it, like BitWarden, PiHole, NextCloud, Wireguard, and maybe more, just for my own use, inside my home.

Is there a way to guage whether the hardware is up to the task in advance? Like, if love to be able to plan this by saying, “this container will use x MB of ram and 5% of the cpu” and so on?

I want to run everything on this one PC since that’s all I have right now.

EDITED TO ADD: T****hank you all! Great info. :thumbsup

    This is tangential to your question, but I’ve been playing with Kubernetes and its ability to ration resources like CPU and RAM. I’m guessing that Docker has a similar facility. Doing this, I hope, will allow me to have Plex transcode videos in the background without affecting the responsiveness of a web app I’m using or will kill and restart that one app I wrote that has a memory leak that I can’t find.
