1  Servers

Hostname Model CPUs (total cores) Memory GPUs PSUs
edge-router Dell PowerEdge R410 2 × Xeon L5520 @ 2.26 GHz (8 cores total) 16 GB DDR3 ECC – 2 × 500 W
docker-ai Dell PowerEdge R720 2 × Xeon E5‑2670 v2 @ 2.5 GHz (40 cores total) 256 GB DDR3 ECC 2 × NVIDIA Tesla P40 24 GB 2 × 750 W
docker-logic Dell PowerEdge R630 (8 SFF) 2 × Xeon E5‑2680 v3 @ 2.4 GHz (48 cores total) 128 GB DDR4 ECC – 2 × 750 W

Both servers run Ubuntu 24 LTS with a single, root‑based Docker daemon. The edge router runs pfSense and also hosts a WireGuard tunnel for remote/public access to the internal network.
