Enterprise-class backup, restore, and deduplication for your virtual machines and containers.

  • Incremental, Encrypted Backups
  • Fast Restore & Deduplication
  • ZFS, XFS, BTRFS Support
  • Perfect with Proxmox VE

Proxmox VE on Bare Metal vs. Public Cloud

Get raw performance. Unlike public cloud providers, NodeSpace runs Proxmox directly on enterprise hardware, giving you full access to KVM acceleration and ZFS data integrity.

Nested virtualization on AWS, GCP, or Azure means your VMs run inside a VM — adding latency and removing hardware passthrough capabilities. With bare metal Proxmox hosting, you get direct access to NVMe storage, hardware RAID, IPMI, and full PCIe passthrough for GPU workloads.

  • Native KVM acceleration — no nested virtualization overhead
  • Direct NVMe and ZFS access for maximum I/O performance
  • Full IPMI/KVM for out-of-band management
  • PCIe passthrough for GPU and specialized hardware

High Availability (HA) & Ceph Storage Solutions

Eliminate single points of failure with multi-node Proxmox clusters and distributed storage.

Multi-Node HA Clusters

We build 3+ node clusters with redundant networking, ensuring your VMs automatically migrate if a node goes down. Corosync-based fencing and quorum keep your cluster consistent.

Ceph Distributed Storage

Replicate data across multiple nodes with Ceph. No single disk or server is a point of failure. Scale storage independently of compute with commodity hardware.

Live Migration

Move running VMs between nodes with zero downtime for maintenance, upgrades, or load balancing. Your users never notice a thing.

Managed Proxmox Backup Server (PBS)

Enterprise-class backup infrastructure for your Proxmox VE environment, fully managed by our team.

Proxmox Backup Server provides incremental, deduplicated, and encrypted backups for your VMs and containers. We deploy and manage PBS on dedicated hardware, ensuring your backups are always running, verified, and ready for fast restores.

  • Incremental backups with client-side deduplication
  • AES-256 encryption at rest and in transit
  • Automated verification and integrity checks
  • Seamless integration with Proxmox VE clusters
Backup. Deduplicate. Encrypt. Restore.

Deployed on dedicated NVMe hardware with off-site replication options.

Broadcom/VMware vs. NodeSpace Proxmox

Since Broadcom's VMware pricing changes, thousands of organizations are evaluating open-source alternatives. Here's how we compare.

Feature NodeSpace Proxmox VMware/Broadcom
Licensing Model Open source — no per-core fees Per-core subscription bundles
Annual Cost (16-core server) $0 license + hosting $4,000 – $8,000+ in licensing alone
Hypervisor KVM (Linux kernel) ESXi (proprietary)
Distributed Storage Ceph (integrated) vSAN (additional license)
Backup Solution PBS (free, integrated) Requires Veeam or third-party
Container Support Native LXC containers Requires Tanzu (enterprise tier)
Web UI Included — full-featured vCenter (additional license)
Infrastructure We own our hardware You provide or rent separately
Migration Assistance Included

Scale your infrastructure based on your hardware, not your license budget.

"We don't just host Proxmox; we contribute to the community. Our engineers manage hundreds of nodes daily and have helped organizations of all sizes migrate from VMware."

— NodeSpace Engineering Team

Case Study: We helped a SaaS provider migrate 200+ VMs from VMware to a Proxmox HA cluster with Ceph storage — with zero downtime and a 60% reduction in annual licensing costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Proxmox VE performs best on enterprise-grade hardware with ECC RAM, NVMe SSDs, and multi-core processors (Intel Xeon or AMD EPYC). For clusters, dedicated 10GbE networking for Ceph replication and a separate management network are recommended. All NodeSpace dedicated servers meet these specifications.

A Proxmox cluster requires a minimum of 3 nodes for proper quorum. Nodes communicate over a dedicated Corosync network and share configuration automatically. Our engineers handle the full cluster setup — networking, Corosync, fencing, HA groups, and Ceph storage if needed. Check out our Proxmox installation guide for more details.

Yes. We specialize in VMware to Proxmox migrations. Our engineers convert VMDK disks to QCOW2 or raw format, reconfigure networking, and validate performance on the new platform. We've migrated hundreds of VMs for organizations looking to escape Broadcom's per-core licensing model.

Proxmox VE is a mature, production-ready hypervisor used by thousands of organizations worldwide. It offers KVM virtualization, LXC containers, Ceph storage, HA clustering, and a full web UI — all with no per-core licensing fees. For most workloads, Proxmox provides comparable or better features than VMware vSphere at a fraction of the cost.

Yes. All NodeSpace Proxmox deployments include 24/7 access to engineers who understand clustering, storage, and networking best practices. We offer initial setup, ongoing monitoring, security updates, and troubleshooting. For enterprise needs, we also provide custom consulting engagements.
