Why Proxmox?

Powerful, flexible, and refreshingly sane.

Proxmox VE combines KVM virtual machines with lightweight LXC containers in a flexible, open-source virtualisation platform. It brings compute, networking and storage together without requiring a small mountain of proprietary licensing paperwork.

The real trick is designing it sensibly: choosing the right storage, understanding cluster quorum, planning for failure and knowing how to recover when reality declines to follow the diagram.
