AppDaemon for Home Assistant, Using Ceph and Proxmox as a Distributed NAS

Meeting Date

Khalid Baheyeldin will continue his series of talks about Home Assistant by telling us about AppDaemon, an execution environment that interfaces with Home Assistant for writing custom apps in Python. He will demonstrate a simple app, and then show some more involved ones, including an app for emailing weather updates, and an app to replace his humidifier's humidistat.
 

Spencer Hughes will demonstrate how he uses Ceph and Proxmox for network storage. He writes:

Proxmox supports Ceph for VM storage, but the built-in Ceph deployment can be used for much more. Learn how to use the Proxmox-managed Ceph cluster for storing any kind of data and accessing it over the network.
