One USB turns any machine into a self-managing node. Great tools for data teams and individual developers to provision, network, monitor, and build on their own infrastructure. Own the hardware. Keep the margin.
Private beta. Limited spots.
Datacenter.Dev helps you turn your own hardware into a private cloud, managed by AI agents. ProxAPI, our Rust-powered orchestration layer, sits on top of Proxmox VE to give you the smoothest, quickest path from bare metal to production. Set up once, and it handles the rest. Built by Brahmastra Labs.
The only thing keeping you on AWS, GCP, or Azure is the complexity of managing it yourself. Networking, provisioning, monitoring, and patching. It's a full-time job on top of your actual mission. We built an orchestration layer that handles the undifferentiated work, so every person on your team can focus on what actually moves the business forward.

How It Works
An engineering onboarding experience for rapid enterprise deployment. The first machine becomes your control plane. Every machine after that joins automatically. No SSH. No config files. No tickets.
First node
Flash a USB, boot any machine. It installs Proxmox VE, bootstraps Headscale, generates mTLS certs, spins up Caddy and ProxAPI. Then the USB rewrites itself into a Worker ISO. Hand it to the next machine.
Every node after
Pre-baked with mesh credentials and mTLS certs. Boot any machine, it finds your cluster on LAN or falls back to the Tailscale mesh overlay. Picks up the next hostname and joins. Works across sites, subnets, and the internet.
KVM hypervisor, LXC containers, ZFS storage, HA, live migration.
Self-organizing WireGuard mesh with DERP relay. Your own control server.
Mutual TLS reverse proxy with Cloudflare tunnel. Auto-generated certs.
19 Rust crates, 700+ endpoints. Agents, swarms, brain, knowledge graph, compute fabric, audit trail.
Distributed SQL across your cluster. 127 tables. Replicates automatically.
Every node gets a WireGuard tunnel through Headscale. Same LAN? Direct connection. Different continent? Routes through the DERP relay. The mesh heals itself. One flat, encrypted network spanning every machine you own. Put one under your desk and one in a colo. They'll find each other.
For AI Agents
Most “AI-ready” infrastructure just means you bolted an API onto a VM. ProxAPI was built from the ground up for autonomous agents. RBAC with resource budgets, ownership policies, lease management, and a full brain system that learns from every task. Agents operate freely within guardrails you define. Explore the full API.
Agents spin up VMs and containers, run code, take screenshots, control mouse and keyboard. Pre-authorized within RBAC policies and resource budgets. No tickets, no waiting.
Checkpoint, branch, and rollback entire environments. Agents can fork a sandbox, try something risky, and roll back if it doesn't work. Safe experimentation built into the platform.
Decompose work into dependency graphs with topological ordering (Kahn's algorithm). Agents claim tasks, complete them, and the engine automatically unlocks the next wave. This is how swarms coordinate.
R-GATv2 knowledge graph with Hebbian synaptic learning. The brain builds weighted edges between concepts and strengthens them through 9-component reward signals: completion quality, speed, dependency resolution, knowledge reuse, collaboration, error avoidance, memory creation, correctness, and efficiency.
Route across OpenRouter and RunPod with automatic circuit breaker protection (3-strike cooldown and recovery). Run local models on your own cloud hardware. Per-agent token budgets, spend limits, usage export, and cost tracking built in.
15 automation modules: Safari, Mail, Calendar, iMessage, Finder, Notes, Reminders, Shortcuts, Siri, Terminal, and more. Full accessibility API integration for Mac-based agent fleets.
Describe what you need in plain language and get a custom workflow built for your use case. Prompt-driven automation that connects your infrastructure, data pipelines, and agents into repeatable processes. No YAML, no drag-and-drop.
AI Employees
Your infrastructure runs personal AI assistants for every person in your organization. Research helpers, data analysis tools, code reviewers, writing partners. Each employee orchestrates agents tuned to their role, running on hardware you own. Not a shared chatbot. A personal toolkit that grows with them.
Personal research teams that scan, synthesize, and summarize across your entire knowledge base. Semantic search powered by the built-in knowledge graph.
Give your data team AI-powered assistants that crunch, pattern-match, and surface insights faster. More throughput, same headcount.
Give every person on your team the tools to move faster and experiment freely. Unlock their best work.
All agent work stays on your network. Conversations, documents, analysis. Nothing leaves your infrastructure. Full sovereignty.

Frequently Asked Questions
ProxAPI is a Rust-powered orchestration layer built on Proxmox VE. It provides 700+ REST API endpoints across 19 crates and 128 route modules, giving you the smoothest, quickest path from bare metal to production. It covers VMs, containers, networking, storage, Kubernetes-style resource scheduling, swarm coordination with leader election and consensus, knowledge graphs, and compliance audit trails. ProxAPI ships with 5 built-in agent types (explorer, planner, executor, architect, auditor) plus an extensible profiles and souls system, a task DAG engine for coordinating agent swarms, and sandbox environments with checkpoint and rollback.
Cloud repatriation is the process of moving workloads from public cloud providers like AWS, GCP, or Azure back to hardware you own. Organizations that repatriate typically save 60% or more on infrastructure costs. The economics are straightforward: modern hardware costs less than a year of equivalent EC2 instances. After the hardware pays for itself in under 10 months, every month after that is pure savings. Broadcom's acquisition of VMware has accelerated this trend, with licensing costs increasing 350% or more. Independent case studies from Petronella Technology Group document real companies achieving these savings.
datacenter.dev provides an engineering onboarding experience designed for rapid deployment in enterprise environments. Flash the Control Plane ISO onto a USB drive and boot any machine. It installs Proxmox VE, bootstraps Headscale for mesh networking, generates mTLS certificates, and spins up Caddy and ProxAPI automatically. Then the USB rewrites itself into a Worker ISO. Hand it to the next machine, boot it, and that node finds your cluster on LAN or falls back to the Tailscale mesh overlay. It picks up the next hostname and joins. A structured deployment workflow for engineering teams that scales across sites, subnets, and the internet.
Any x86_64 machine with at least 4GB of RAM and a 32GB drive. That includes old desktops, refurbished servers, NUCs, or proper rack-mount hardware. The first machine becomes your control plane, and every machine after that joins as a worker node. You can mix and match hardware across locations. A machine under your desk and one in a colocation facility will find each other through the WireGuard mesh. For GPU workloads like local LLM inference, any machine with a supported NVIDIA or AMD GPU works with ProxAPI's GPU passthrough support.
Yes. All computation, data, and agent activity stays on hardware you physically own and control. Nothing leaves your network unless you explicitly configure it to. There are no cloud dependencies, no telemetry, and no data exfiltration. The platform uses mutual TLS encryption for all inter-node communication, WireGuard tunnels for the mesh overlay, and supports FDA 21 CFR Part 11 append-only audit trails with SHA-256 hash chains for regulated industries. Your data sovereignty is absolute.
LOGOS is a deterministic compiler that parses structured English into formally verified Rust via the Z3 theorem prover. It ships with every datacenter.dev cloud. LOGOS features Z3-verified Zanzibar-style access policies, p2p-networked CRDTs as language primitives, and WAL-journaled persistence to disk or browser OPFS. Write what you mean in plain English, and the compiler proves you meant it correctly, then outputs native code through LLVM with zero runtime overhead. The interactive studio, learning modules, and full language reference are available at logicaffeine.com.
