About Proxmox Server Solutions
Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH is an independent, developer-driven software company based in Vienna, Austria. Since its founding in 2005, the company has focused on creating powerful, open-source server software that provides an alternative to proprietary virtualization stacks. Their flagship product, Proxmox Virtual Environment (VE), integrates two virtualization technologies—KVM for virtual machines and LXC for lightweight containers—into a single platform managed through a comprehensive web interface. The Proxmox ecosystem is designed for enterprise-grade reliability and scalability without vendor lock-in. By utilizing a Debian-based foundation and the GNU Affero General Public License v3 (AGPLv3), Proxmox ensures that customers maintain full control over their infrastructure. In addition to virtualization, the company offers Proxmox Backup Server for enterprise-class deduplicated backups and Proxmox Mail Gateway for email security. Their business model relies on enterprise support subscriptions, providing a sustainable path for open-source development while serving a global base of B2B customers.
