Canonical MicroCloud

MicroCloud is Canonical’s take on bringing a cloud-like experience to your own hardware, and what impressed me most was how simple it was to install and cluster. It runs great and the built-in image library makes spinning up VMs and LXCs quick, but the defaults (especially networking and CLI-first docs) can feel more enterprise than homelab.
