Modern IT runs on virtualization. It converts physical servers into dynamic, manageable infrastructure, boosts efficiency, and keeps systems ready for growth or unexpected challenges. Choosing a new platform or migrating from VMware is a key step that can influence how smoothly operations run.
Proxmox VE and Microsoft Hyper-V are two leading virtualization platforms, but they take very different approaches.
Proxmox VE is an open-source platform that combines virtualization and container management in a single interface. It offers flexibility, broad operating system support, and built-in features for high availability and cluster management.
Hyper-V is built into Windows Server and integrates closely with Microsoft tools. It supports both Windows and Linux virtual machines and provides enterprise-grade features such as clustering, live migration, and replication.
We’ve put together this comparison to give a clear, side-by-side look at both platforms. In it, you’ll learn:
- How each platform is designed and structured
- Typical use cases for different environments
- Key security and compliance features
- Cost considerations to help compare the platforms
