Self-hosted blog [part II] - (ArgoCD + Gitlab CI + K8s)

Wed, 09 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This is the second part of a a two-part series on how to build & deploy a self-hosted blog-like application using Hugo + Docker + Kubernetes + Gitlab CI + Cloudflare.

The following steps will be focused on building a CD process for automatically deploying our blog to our self-hosted Kubernetes cluster everytime there is a new version of it. We will be achieving this by using ArgoCD.

If you are interested in knowing how to actually build the blog site (and automate that too), feel free to check part I, where I go in depth on everything from installing the website framework up to deploying the first version manually.

Introduction

Before I entertain you with the second part of my series on how to build and deploy a self-hosted blog. I wanted to share a little project I took on and how I almost failed at it (they cannot be all success stories - right ?).

In any case, it’s one of those projects that seem simple enough at first but end up becoming daunting tasks that consume you until you literally cannot think about anything else, triggering your most obsessive side, and forcing you to try out yet another solution that popped up in your head at midnight convinced that this time it will work. (I’m guessing that if you are an engineer and you are reading this you can relate 😄)

This is the first part of a a two-part series on how to build & deploy a self-hosted blog-like application using Hugo + Docker + Kubernetes + Gitlab CI + Cloudflare.

The following steps will be focused on giving a high-level overview of the project, creating the blog, setting up the CI pipeline for the build process and setting an initial deployment strategy for exposing the application to the Internet.

Self-hosted DNS with HA (Adguard Home + K8s + Keepalived)

Introduction

A few months back, I joined the self-hosted guild due to some convincing of my colleague and friend Aleix.

One of the first projects I decided to embark on in my Homelab was installing a DNS sinkhole, and for that I looked at a few alternatives arriving at last to Adguard Home.

When researching about the different deployment methods I stumbled upon a few guides on the Internet, but finally decided on deploying it in Kubernetes, as an interesting learning experience.

Hello world!

My name is Pablo Murga, I’m an Argentinian based in Barcelona, who enjoys technology.

I’m currently a Platform Engineering Manager, although I come from a background of Infrastructure engineering, SRE, etc. and have collaborated in a few development projects along the years.

I’ve always liked writing, not just on technical topics, so this blog will likely include a mixture of things (focused around my thoughts on the tech world, management and my own personal projects).
