Proxmox VE

Proxmox VE runs both KVM full virtualization for Windows and Linux and lightweight LXC system containers on the same server, managed from one web console and REST API. It is a complete, self-hosted alternative to proprietary virtualization platforms for running and organizing workloads on your own hardware.

Multiple nodes join a cluster with HA clustering and live migration, so VMs move between hosts and restart elsewhere on failure. Software-defined storage and networking are built in, including integrated Ceph and ZFS, with backup and restore from the same interface.

Proxmox VE is developed by Proxmox Server Solutions as an open-source product, installed on bare metal as the operating system itself. The web interface is the primary entry point for managing the whole cluster.
