Server virtualization
Run more workloads on hardware you control
We deploy and configure hypervisors on dedicated servers – from a single node to a geographically distributed cluster.
-
Single node or multi-server cluster
-
Geographically distributed deployments
-
Live VM migration between nodes
-
Local, shared, and distributed storage
-
Proxmox VE, Hyper-V, SUSE Virtualization, XCP-ng
Why virtualize your servers
Server virtualization turns one physical machine into a fleet of isolated virtual servers – and scales the same way from a single node to a cluster spanning multiple data centers.
-
Higher hardware utilization
Read more Lessrun dozens of virtual machines on a single physical server instead of keeping underused hardware for every workload. Dynamic resource allocation: CPU, memory, and storage are assigned per VM and adjusted as workload demands change.
-
Lower costs
Read more Lessconsolidation cuts capital expenditure, power consumption, and rack space. Open-source platforms: Proxmox VE and XCP-ng carry no licensing fees – paid vendor support is optional, not mandatory.
-
Faster provisioning
Read more Lessnew virtual servers are created, cloned, or removed far faster than any physical deployment. Templates and cloning: standardized VM templates let you replicate a proven configuration in a couple of clicks.
-
Workload isolation
Read more Lesseach VM runs its own OS and applications – a crash or misconfiguration in one does not affect the others. Safe testing: experiment with updates, new software, or configuration changes in an isolated VM before touching production.
-
Simple scaling
Read more Lessstart on a single server and join additional nodes into a cluster as your workload grows – no migration to a new platform required. Unified management: clustered nodes are managed from one interface, with VMs placed on whichever node has free capacity.
-
Geographic flexibility
Read more Lesscluster nodes can live in different data centers or regions, keeping workloads close to your users. VM migration between sites: move virtual machines between nodes and locations for maintenance, load distribution, or planned relocation.
Workloads that run well on virtualized servers
- Web applications and websites
- Database servers
- Development and test environments
- Business applications – ERP and CRM
- Container hosts – Docker and Kubernetes
- Remote desktops and workstations
- Legacy application support
- Backup and staging environments
Turnkey server virtualization –
from planning to production
-
1
Assessment and planning
We map your workloads, performance targets, and growth plans. We review the existing hardware, network, and storage setup. Based on that, we propose the right topology – a single node, a multi-server cluster, or a geographically distributed deployment.
-
2
Hypervisor deployment
We install and configure Proxmox VE, Microsoft Hyper-V, SUSE Virtualization, or XCP-ng on your servers. Virtual networks, VLANs, and node interconnects are set up and verified. Local, shared, or distributed storage is configured to match your capacity and performance needs.
-
3
Virtual machine setup
We create your virtual machines and install the operating systems you need. CPU, memory, disk, and network resources are tuned per VM for its role. We prepare reusable templates so you can roll out new VMs on your own.
-
4
Testing and validation
We verify the environment handles the expected load without degradation. For cluster deployments, live VM migration between nodes is checked end to end. We confirm snapshots and backups actually restore.
-
5
Monitoring and maintenance
Monitoring tools are configured to track host and VM health, capacity, and performance. You get notifications for critical events – node issues, resource exhaustion, failed backups. Scheduled maintenance tasks keep the platform stable and predictable.
-
6
Ongoing support
Our engineers stay available for troubleshooting and configuration changes. We handle platform patches and version upgrades to keep the environment secure and current.
FAQ
-
Which hypervisor should I choose?
It depends on your environment and team. Proxmox VE is the most popular open-source choice with a mature web interface and built-in backup tools. XCP-ng suits teams coming from the Citrix ecosystem. Microsoft Hyper-V fits Windows-centric infrastructures with existing Windows Server licensing. SUSE Virtualization is a strong option for teams planning to combine virtual machines with Kubernetes workloads. We help you pick during the assessment stage.
-
Can I start with one server and add more later?
Yes. You can start on a single node and join additional servers into a cluster as your workload grows – without reinstalling the platform or migrating to a different product.
-
How many virtual machines fit on one server?
It depends on the server configuration and the workloads. As a rough guide, a modern dedicated server comfortably runs anywhere from a few resource-heavy VMs to dozens of lightweight ones. During planning, we size the setup against your actual workload requirements.
-
What operating systems can run inside the virtual machines?
Virtually any Linux distribution, Windows Server and desktop editions, BSD systems, and specialized appliances such as pfSense. Different guest operating systems run side by side on the same host.
-
What is the performance overhead of virtualization?
With modern hardware-assisted virtualization, the overhead is small – typically a few percent for most workloads. Devices such as network cards, GPUs, or storage controllers can be passed through directly to a VM for near-native performance.
-
Can you migrate my existing servers into virtual machines?
Yes. Physical servers can be converted into virtual machines, and existing VMs can be moved from other platforms. We plan the migration so that downtime stays within an agreed maintenance window.
-
What happens if the physical server fails?
On a single node, you restore virtual machines from backups onto replacement hardware. In a cluster, VMs can be moved or restarted on the remaining nodes. If your workloads need automatic failover with minimal interruption, look at our high availability cluster service – it is a separate offering built for exactly that.
-
Do I keep full control of the environment after handover?
Yes. You get full administrative access to the hypervisor and every virtual machine, along with documentation of the setup. Ongoing support is available, but you are never locked into it.
