After giving my father the tour of my home automation empire, my dad was amazed at all of the different "systems" that are coordinated to control everything. I had never really thought about it until he mentioned it but I am curious how others' setup compare to mine:
Hubitat (Obviously)
SmartThings Hub connected to HE with HubConnect
Bond IO Hub to control ceiling fans
Tasmotized Sonoff RF Bridge to listen for RF Water Leak Sensors and Motion Sensors and generate MQTT messages
Raspberry Pi with Node Red to listen for MQTT messages and send HTTP Requests to HE; create automatic backups of database nightly; ping some of the hubs to confirm they are still online;
Android Phone with Tasker to listen for notifications from Eufy Camera and Wyze Cameras then send HTTP Requests to HE
Logitech Harmony Remote
Alexa
Google Home/Assistant
Homekit (I probably can't count this because although I activated it on our Apple TV, I have no intention of using it for anything. I just did it because I could).
And, now in the past few days, I have read about setting up Zigbee2MQTT to handle the cheap Ecosmart remotes that came the the bulbs at Home Depot and someone creating Wyze Sense Integration; both of which would require what I would call more "systems". I am curious what others are doing. I am sure that a lot of people there are using Home Assistant or OpenHAB. I cannot give a concrete definition on what I would call a "system" so please feel free to use your own definition. I think mine would all be considered hardware.

Server based HP āSitescopeā monitoring everything
Multiple āAWSā servers for sending email from the hubs, Hubitat related website and update scripts
Multiple windows command scripts monitoring and backing up, running on a physical windows server
Apart from two dev hubs.. everything is āproductionā and running my home in one way or another
If you run any of my apps or drivers, it connects to one of my aws servers to check for updates.
Another aws server is for my soon to be released email solution to send email directly from your hub.
āSitescopeā monitors my hubs and alerts if the responses are not quick enough.
One of my windows servers here runs scripted backups of my hubs every night
