Implementation of virtualization and private clouds based on Proxmox VE and VMware

We consolidate physical server parks into high-performance fault-tolerant clusters. We deploy private corporate-level clouds on the open hypervisor Proxmox VE (with zero cost for the license) or on the VMware ESXi platform with live virtual machine migration, distributed storage Ceph/ZFS, and high availability.

✓ Proxmox VE as an alternative to VMware: zero cost for expensive Broadcom subscriptions
✓ Fail-Resilient High Availability Clusters: Automatic Restart of Machines upon Node Failure
✓ Live migration of virtual machines (Live Migration) between servers without breaking client sessions
✓ Distributed reliable data storage based on ZFS and Ceph with high-speed NVMe caching

Why do companies combine physical resources into virtual clusters

Instead of purchasing a physical server for each task — a smart private cloud

[ 01 ]

Cost savings of up to 60% budget on physical server purchase

Instead of 10 separate «half-empty» servers you purchase 2–3 powerful nodes, on which dozens of isolated virtual machines with 100% resource utilization run.

[ 02 ]

Hardware maintenance without business operation interruption

Do you need to replace the memory module or clean the server from dust? All virtual machines are moved in one click to the neighboring server in flight without interrupting users' work.

[ 03 ]

Deployment of a New Server in 60 Seconds

Need to launch a new test environment, website or database? Instead of waiting weeks for hardware delivery, an administrator clones a template in one minute.

[ 04 ]

Freedom from sanctions and license price increase for VMware

After Broadcom's acquisition of VMware, license prices increased by several times. We help smoothly migrate the entire infrastructure to the free Proxmox VE.

[ Engineering Standard of Expansion ]

What is included in the design and configuration of virtualization

We create a reliable foundation platform for all corporate applications

[ STEP 01 ] Sizing

Audit of computational capacity and cluster sizing

We analyze the current load, calculate the required CPU cores, RAM volumes taking into account growth reserve for 3 years ahead.

[ STEP 02 ] Hypervisor

Installation and tuning of hypervisor (Proxmox VE / VMware)

We are deploying the hypervisor operating system, configuring network interfaces, LACP channel aggregation, and KVM kernel security.

[ STEP 03 ] Ceph & ZFS

Designing a distributed storage (Ceph / ZFS Pool)

Collecting fault-tolerant disk arrays with data replication, configuring multi-level NVMe cache for fast reading and writing.

[ STEP 04 ] HA Cluster

High Availability mechanism configuration

Configure the quorum of the cluster (Corosync / Fencing), so that in case of sudden failure of one node machine, the adjacent ones start immediately.

[ STEP 05 ] P2V Migration

Conversion and migration of existing systems (P2V / V2V)

Securely migrate existing physical servers (Physical-to-Virtual) or machines from VMware/Hyper-V to Proxmox without data loss.

[ STEP 06 ] Backup & Reports

Integration of Proxmox Backup Server and SLA monitoring

Connecting a dedicated server of deduplicated backups (PBS) and integrating cluster telemetry into Zabbix and Grafana.

[ FREQUENT QUESTIONS ]

Answers to common questions from customers

Key details regarding terms, independent website editing, and rights transfer.

After VMware was acquired by Broadcom, licensing terms radically changed: the free ESXi version was closed, perpetual licenses were canceled, and the cost of mandatory annual subscription increased by 3–10 times. Proxmox VE is based on a reliable Debian Linux kernel and KVM, has open source code, does not require mandatory payment for kernel or socket licenses, and provides out-of-the-box full functionality of clustering, backups and Ceph storage.

Live migration — is a technology that allows to move a running virtual machine from one physical server to another through a high-speed network without shutting down. The content of the RAM is synchronized in flight, so users who are working in 1C or a database at this moment will not feel any connection break or hang.

With High Availability (HA), the cluster detects a failed node’s loss of connectivity within a few seconds and automatically restarts all virtual machines that were running on it on healthy servers. Since Ceph storage keeps copies of the data on all nodes simultaneously, not a single byte of information is lost.

Yes. Modern KVM hypervisors practically have no overhead (overhead < 1–2%). By using direct NVMe disk pass-through and "host-passthrough" processor mode, a virtual machine with a database works as fast as on clean hardware, while at the same time gaining all the advantages of instant snapshots and migration.

On average, creating a cluster and migrating a typical infrastructure from 5–10 servers takes from 5 to 10 working days. Most operations are performed in parallel without interrupting the company's operations.
