Strong power saving setup with load balancing within ha cluster of different machines?
Np, here is an excellent series on Kubernetes (k8s) - https://www.youtube.com/live/IcslsH7OoYo?feature=share the same youtuber has an amazing guide on how to build a k8s cluster on Raspberry Pi. You could do the same with Proxmox VMs for example and scale up/down your workloads that way. Ubuntu has an flavour of k8s specifically designed for power efficiency as well - https://microk8s.io/?_ga=2.40011622.572584182.1676996854-1728954411.1676996854 but the regular kind is also fine. If you run them in a lightweight Linux VM such as PhotonOS - https://github.com/vmware/photon - that would significantly reduce your power usage and you will also learn a lot of cool things along the way.
