Professional service and support for ProxmoxVE

Proxmox Virtual Environment (also known as Proxmox VE) is a comprehensive open-source virtualization platform for Qemu KVM and LXC. As a virtualization solution, Proxmox is based on the Debian Linux distribution and enables straightforward, efficient deployment of virtual machines and containers. Administration and configuration can be done either via a user-friendly web interface, an API, or the regular command line, which also allows for complete management using classic configuration management tools like Ansible or Puppet.

Proxmox VE can be operated both as a standalone machine and in a cluster consisting of multiple machines, which offers further advantages in terms of availability. In cluster operation, CoroSync is used for configuration distribution.

With Software-Defined Networking (SDN), Proxmox VE enables the creation and management of complex network configurations. This allows Virtual Networks (VNets) to be set up and network traffic to be efficiently routed across multiple nodes and clusters.

Proxmox VE offers a wide range of options for integrating disk storage, leaving virtually no wishes unfulfilled. Distributed storage solutions like Ceph, central NFS or iSCSI solutions, or local data storage with ZFS and snapshots are just some of the many possible options. The use of NVMe-oF in conjunction with Proxmox enables a significant increase in performance in virtualized environments by providing fast and low-latency access to NVMe storage over networks, which improves the efficiency of data-intensive applications and enables optimized resource utilization.

Proxmox VE is continuously being developed. For example, the Proxmox Backup Server provides a backup solution that enables the backup and restoration of VMs and containers, both as standalone software and with full integration into Proxmox VE. The ecosystem around Proxmox VE is also constantly growing. For instance, Proxmox can be seamlessly managed with Ansible or Terraform.
