# 📝 Description Welcome to Part 3 of the Ultimate Kubernetes HomeLab series! In this video, we’re diving deep into **Sidero Omni**, the **Omni Proxmox Infra Provider**, and deploying a full **Talos OS cluster from scratch**—all running fully self-hosted. You’ll learn how to set up Omni, connect it to Proxmox using the official infra provider, provision Talos machines, and manage the entire lifecycle of your Kubernetes nodes through a clean, modern UI. Whether you're building your first HomeLab or designing a fully automated GitOps-powered platform, this walkthrough gives you everything you need to adopt a cloud-style Metal-as-a-Service workflow on Proxmox.
