Proxmox my beloved
Did you ever try LXD/Incus?
Nope. I'm pretty happy with proxmox and I dont want to change a perfectly fine, running system
+1 … been using PVE in my homelab for ages and just deployed a small, self-contained (i.e. non-SAN-connected) PVE cluster at the office in light of Broadcom’s shenanigans. I had no idea just how fantastically well Proxmox ran on higher-end hardware with Ceph installed. It’s glorious.
Oh yeah it runs fine until they kill their free tier like ESXi did or... it completely fails over and over again.
Proxmox doesn't have a free tier, it is free.
You can pay for support and shit if you want.
Since you are apparently on an anti-proxmox crusade. Have you tried that iscus thing in enterprise? Like a very large scale production deployment? Since I have never heard of it, I am curious if anyone dares to use it in enterprise when people are even scared of proxmox or anything not VMware or MAYBE hyperV
Maybe if you read the comment I linked you'll find that that's precisely what we had with Proxmox and then migrated to LXD.
I guess it depends on the kind of "enterprise" we're talking about. If your "enterprise" is somewhat of a provider / ISP they should be okay with LXD. A lot of service providers are running some form of LXC/LXD right now with very good results.
If by "enterprise" you mean your typical 400+ people company that does something not related to tech with an overworked and barely competent IT / infrastructure team, then the answer is: they won't move out of vmware ever.
Well, suit yourself. :)
I love LXD/INCUS + ZFS! It goes together like chocolate and peanut butter.
Oh yeah, zfs send ftw. I personally run most of stuff on BTRFS and I can say the same.
Once you’ve throughly beaten your head against every little thing that’s not ready to go out of the box like ESX is, puzzled through cryptic VM errors and Ubuntu being broken on default VM settings, and then browsed the sometimes aggressively unhelpful forums, it’s great!
sounds like a skill issue to me
Ah yes, I see the forums are leaking again
