What is Proxmox VE?
Proxmox Virtual Environment combines KVM virtualisation for virtual machines with LXC containers, clustering, high availability, storage integration and a web interface. The software is open source; paid subscriptions provide support and stable update repositories. With Proxmox Backup Server there is a matching backup solution with deduplication.
Typical use cases
- Virtualising Windows and Linux servers in mid-sized companies.
- Alternative to VMware, for example with rising licence costs.
- Test and development environments that can be cloned quickly.
- Clusters with live migration and high availability.
Benefits and limits
Vendor independence, open formats and a broad feature set speak for Proxmox. To check are special functions used, storage concept, vendor approvals for business applications and the question who takes over operation and updates.
