===== TorresVault 2.0 Roadmap =====

This roadmap outlines the future direction of the entire **TorresVault ecosystem**, including
virtualization, storage, networking, automation, AI integration, and home systems.  
It is a **living document** and expands as hardware evolves or new goals are defined.

----

==== 1. Overview / Vision ====

TorresVault 2.0 is the next-generation, fully modernized home infrastructure stack built on:

  * Highly reliable **Proxmox cluster**
  * Dedicated **hardware NAS**
  * Unified **10Gbps network backbone**
  * Fully automated **Home Assistant ecosystem**
  * Local-first **AI (Jarvis) integration**
  * Scalable **Pixel Light Show** platform
  * A clean, organized, self-documenting **TorresVault Documentation Wiki**

The final goal:  
**A resilient, enterprise-grade home-lab + smart-home + lighting-control platform supporting all family systems with minimal maintenance and maximum reliability.**

----

==== 2. Phase 1 — NAS + Proxmox Hybrid Upgrade ====

**Status:** Planned for next build cycle

===== New Hardware =====

  * **ASRock Rack X570D4U**
    * IPMI remote management (finally!)
    * Dual Intel X550 10GbE
    * ECC RAM support
    * Perfect for NAS + virtualization hybrid workloads

  * **AMD CPU Platform**
    * Lower power usage than Intel
    * Better performance-per-watt
    * Strong virtualization capability

  * **Storage**
    * 16 × **6 TB SAS enterprise drives**
    * 2 × HBAs (LSI 9201-8i or flashed 9211 IT mode)
    * ZFS RAIDZ2 or RAIDZ1 depending on layout
    * NVMe SLOG + L2ARC options (future)

  * **Chassis**
    * **Fractal Design Define 7 XL**
    * Heavy, silent, amazing cable management
    * “Showpiece” machine — hood-lift worthy

===== Goals =====

  * Replace pve1 or become a dedicated NAS+Compute hybrid
  * Move TrueNAS VM to **dedicated hardware**
  * Containerize or virtualize high-IO apps on NVMe tiers
  * Offload backup storage from the old 1TB drive farm

----

==== 3. Phase 2 — Mini PC Cluster (Kubernetes / Services) ====

**Hardware:** 2 × **MINISFORUM UM890 Pro**

===== Purpose =====

A dedicated micro-cluster for:

  * Kubernetes learning
  * Moving Docker workloads off VMs
  * Offloading automation (n8n), monitoring, web, API services
  * Stable “always-up” personal cloud environment

===== Benefits =====

  * Frees Proxmox nodes for VMs and heavy workloads
  * More reliable than running many apps inside huge VMs
  * Enables TorresVault to adopt **GitOps / container-first** design

----

==== 4. Phase 3 — Proxmox Cluster Evolution ====

===== Goals =====

  * Add a **third Proxmox node** at some point:
    * Small form factor or older server
    * Not high performance — for **quorum + migrations + HA-lite**

  * Introduce **real shared storage**:
    * NFS or iSCSI from the new NAS
    * Optional Ceph Nano (long-term)

  * Add **10GbE** backplane between nodes:
    * X550 on new NAS
    * SFP+ options for nodes
    * Either DACs or fiber depending on rack distance

  * Restructure VM placement:
    * Media workloads → new NAS or pve2
    * App workloads → Mini PC cluster
    * Infrastructure → pve1 / pve2 stabilized

----

==== 5. Phase 4 — Network Upgrades (UniFi) ====

Planned UniFi evolution:

  * Add **10GbE aggregation** for servers & NAS  
  * Replace or reposition switches for:
    * Cleaner rack layout  
    * Better port distribution  
  * Define production VLANs:
    * `stark_user`
    * `stark_IOT`
    * `IOT+`
    * `Torres Family Lights`
    * Guest
    * Future: Management VLAN (for servers/switches)

  * Add new UPS and integrate with **NUT**:
    * One UPS in Hall Closet → pve1 / new NAS
    * One UPS in Office → pve2 / Mini PCs
    * NUT central server on RPi
    * Auto-shutdown cascade for everything

----

==== 6. Phase 5 — Home Assistant 2.0 ====

You've already done incredible work on the dashboards.  
Next step is **automation architecture**.

===== Goals =====

  * Full-room BLE-based presence detection (Pi Zero + ESPHome)
  * Replace all Amazon Echo devices with **Home Assistant Voice**
  * Expand WLED presence indicators (car, office, living room)
  * Unified theme for all dashboards:
    * Downstairs
    * Upstairs
    * Outside
    * Settings
    * Sports
    * FPP Control

  * Build a **Home Assistant hardware diagram** to document:
    * Sensors
    * Automations
    * ESP devices
    * BLE beacons
    * Zigbee network (future: Sonoff ZBDongle)

  * Move more automations from YAML → Blueprint → UI-friendly format

----

==== 7. Phase 6 — Jarvis AI System (Local-First AI) ====

===== Core Goals =====

  * GPU-accelerated local LLM (RTX 3060 or better)
  * Voice-to-intent pipeline:
    * Piper TTS
    * FasterWhisper STT
