Proxmox is an open-source virtualization management platform that allows you to create and manage virtual machines (VMs) and containers on a single physical host. It is based on the Debian GNU/Linux operating system and uses the KVM hypervisor for hardware virtualization and LXC for container virtualization.

Proxmox provides a web-based graphical user interface (GUI) for easy management of VMs and containers, including creating, starting, stopping, migrating, and deleting them. It also supports live migration, which enables you to move running VMs between physical hosts without interrupting their operation.

Proxmox also includes built-in backup and disaster recovery features, which allow you to create snapshots of VMs and containers, and restore them in case of any failure or data loss. Additionally, Proxmox supports high availability (HA) clustering, which enables you to create a cluster of physical hosts, providing automatic failover in case of hardware failure.

Overall, Proxmox is a powerful and flexible virtualization platform that provides a wide range of features for managing VMs and containers, making it a popular choice for both small and large businesses.
