Hosting
HomeDataRoom has a collection of self hosted servers you can join and play on. But if you want to host a server and want us to feature it in the HDR Server Roster, please contact NextPancake401 on Discord, Matrix, or via email at support@homedataroom.com.
Why We Host
HomeDataRoom, from the beginning, was always big on self-hosting. Being self reliant and independent from service providers, networks, or server hosters is and has been the goal for us and our community.
What We Host
The HomeDataRoom administration hosts a few basic servers for people to join and hangout on; Minecraft, 7 Days to Die, and American Truck Simulator are the current servers available to join, but we plan to add more as we grow.
How We Host
Since HomeDataRoom isn't a centralized network of servers, services, and server administrators, there is no specific method we use to host servers, or games. But HomeDataRoom's official servers are hosted on Proxmox VE using workstations that were purchased or given to the administrators of HomeDataRoom. HomeDataRoom uses a collection of proxies, reverse proxies, relays, DNS servers, and VPNs, to provide themselves, self hosted game servers, and their admins with a low latency experience with pretty efficient DDOS protection, dox protection, and better network security.
Self Hosting
Can I Host?
YES! We encourage everyone who wants to host to host, especially if it's self hosting. If you don't know where to start, feel free to contact NextPancake401 at nextpancake@homedataroom.com.
