High-Performance Virtualization,
Open-Source Affordability


Why Virtualize?

First, let’s define ‘Virtualize’. 

Virtualization is the process of creating virtual versions of physical hardware, allowing multiple operating systems and applications to run on a single physical machine.

Let’s say a mid-sized company needs to host 8 different applications, including an Active Directory (Windows), a database server (Windows), a CRM server (Linux) etc. Without virtualization, the company might need to purchase 8 separate physical servers, which can cost upwards of $40k or more.

Using Proxmox VE for server consolidation, they can consolidate the 8 machines to  3 physical machines configured as a high-availability (HA) cluster, bringing the total hardware cost down significantly.

In addition, there are ongoing savings from reduced power consumption and maintenance costs, occupied less space and less hardware to manage.

What’s more, now all the virtual machines (VMs) benefit from high availability. If one server fails, the virtualized applications will automatically fail-over to the surviving servers in the cluster, ensuring minimal downtime.

This setup also provides greater security by seperating services like Active Directory and public facing Web application, keeping these services isolated in their own VMs.

FAQ's

Virtualization is the process of creating virtual versions of physical hardware, allowing multiple operating systems or applications to run on a single physical machine.

VMs are isolated, virtualized environments that run their own operating systems and applications, mimicking the functionality of a physical computer.

Every package comes with 2 virtual machines (VMs) which includes a Windows Server and a Ubuntu Linux. In addition, we will also provide the Windows and Linux  images which you can spawn up additional VMs if required.

Yes, Proxmox is open-source and free to use. However, Proxmox offers a subscription-based support service for enterprise customers that includes access to stable updates, professional support, and additional features. This subscription support is just a fraction of the license cost of commercial product like VMware.

Proxmox VE (Virtual Environment) can be managed through its intuitive web-based management interface, which allows you to create, configure, and monitor virtual machines and containers. You can also manage Proxmox VE using command-line tools or through API integrations.

“Ceph” is an open-source, software-defined storage platform that provides scalable and highly available storage. It distributes data across multiple nodes, ensuring redundancy and fault tolerance. 

It’s widely used in cloud environments and integrates well with virtualization platforms like Proxmox  to create high-availability storage clusters on commodity hardware.

Proxmox VE integrates both KVM and LXC virtualization in a single platform, providing a unified solution for virtual machines and containers. It also features a web-based management interface, high availability clustering, and advanced backup options.

Yes, Proxmox supports snapshots for virtual machines. You can create snapshots of VMs to capture their state at a particular point in time, allowing you to revert to that state if needed.

No, we will pre-install the standard software but configuration and support is not included. If required, you can purchase our flexi hour support. Do contact us for more details.
