# Proxmox Source: https://forgeone.solutions/en/products/proxmox Language: en Published: 2026-09-04 Updated: 2026-10-14 ForgeOne plans, migrates and operates Proxmox VE, Proxmox Backup Server and Proxmox Mail Gateway for private infrastructure, backup and mail security. ## Proxmox Virtualization, Backup & Mail Security with ForgeOne ForgeOne brings Proxmox Virtual Environment, Proxmox Backup Server and Proxmox Mail Gateway together as a clear product family for private infrastructure, reliable backups and secure email traffic. We support assessment, architecture, migration, hardening, automation, monitoring and operations. Platform, backup and mail security are intentionally separated so each decision stays technically sound. The Proxmox product family fits organizations that want to connect virtualization, backup and mail security with a professional operating model. - [Book a consultation](https://forgeone.solutions/en/contact#book-appointment) - [View product family](https://forgeone.solutions/en/products/proxmox) ### Proxmox Product family ### Proxmox VE Virtualization and private infrastructure. - [Proxmox VE](https://forgeone.solutions/en/products/proxmox-virtual-environment) ### Proxmox Backup Server Backup and restore processes. - [PBS](https://forgeone.solutions/en/products/proxmox-backup-server) ### Proxmox Mail Gateway Email security gateway. - [PMG](https://forgeone.solutions/en/products/proxmox-mail-gateway) ## The three core products This overview focuses on the three Proxmox core products that are most relevant for infrastructure projects. ### Proxmox VE Virtualization, containers, clusters, HA, networking, storage and role models for private infrastructure. - [View Proxmox VE](https://forgeone.solutions/en/products/proxmox-virtual-environment) ### Proxmox Backup Server Deduplicated, incremental and encrypted backups with verification, retention and restore testing. - [View Backup Server](https://forgeone.solutions/en/products/proxmox-backup-server) ### Proxmox Mail Gateway Mail security gateway for spam, malware and policy filtering in front of existing mail systems. - [View Mail Gateway](https://forgeone.solutions/en/products/proxmox-mail-gateway) ## Fit guide: when each product matters Proxmox VE is the platform decision for virtualization and private infrastructure. Proxmox Backup Server is the backup and restore component. Proxmox Mail Gateway is a gateway for secure email traffic. A VMware migration can make sense with Proxmox, but it is not just a tooling topic. Workloads, storage, networking, backup, RTO/RPO, operating model, support and automation decide the path. ## Deployment and operating models ForgeOne aligns Proxmox with operability, not feature lists. ### Single site Small to mid-sized environments with clear backup, patching and monitoring structure. - [View VE](https://forgeone.solutions/en/products/proxmox-virtual-environment) ### Cluster & HA Multiple nodes, quorum, HA rules, storage design and controlled maintenance. - [View VE](https://forgeone.solutions/en/products/proxmox-virtual-environment) ### Supported operations Monitoring, updates, restore tests, documentation and automation during operations. - [View monitoring](https://forgeone.solutions/en/monitoring-observability) ## ForgeOne services around Proxmox ForgeOne supports analysis and target architecture, proof of concept, migration and hardening, monitoring, backup design, automation, documentation and operations. We create clear decision material: what stays on existing infrastructure, what is migrated, which risks must be reduced and which processes later operations require. [Virtualization & Storage](https://forgeone.solutions/en/virtualization-storage) ## Infrastructure control with Proxmox Proxmox fits scenarios where organizations want to operate virtualization, backup and mail security on their own or suitable European infrastructure. ForgeOne assesses migration, cluster design, storage, backup, monitoring and exit capability together, so Proxmox remains operable over the long term. See the broader context of [digital sovereignty](https://forgeone.solutions/en/digital-sovereignty). ## Related IT solutions Proxmox touches several solution clusters and should be considered there. ### Virtualization & Storage Target architecture, clusters, storage, networking and platform operations. - [View solution](https://forgeone.solutions/en/virtualization-storage) ### Backup & Disaster Recovery Backups, restore tests, offsite copies, RPO/RTO and recovery procedures. - [View solution](https://forgeone.solutions/en/backup) ### Automation & Platform Engineering Provisioning, roles, lifecycle, patch processes and repeatable changes. - [View solution](https://forgeone.solutions/en/automation-integration) ## FAQ ### Which Proxmox products are in focus? Proxmox VE, Proxmox Backup Server and Proxmox Mail Gateway form a connected product family for virtualization, backup and mail security. ### Does ForgeOne support VMware migrations? Yes, as a validated migration path. Workloads, storage, networking, backup, operating model, support and risks are assessed first. ### Can ForgeOne also operate the platform? Yes. ForgeOne supports architecture, migration, hardening, monitoring, restore testing, automation and ongoing operating processes. ## Recommended next step From the product group, the path leads into assessment, delivery or operations. ### Clarify current state Assess environment, risks, maturity and priorities. - [Start assessment](https://forgeone.solutions/en/analysis-assessment) ### Plan delivery Clarify architecture, migration, integration and operating model. - [Discuss migration](https://forgeone.solutions/en/implementation-migration) ### Define operations Make monitoring, updates, backup, support and responsibilities explicit. - [View operations](https://forgeone.solutions/en/managed-linux) ## Practice & technical insights Practical follow-up articles covering installation, operations, architecture and implementation steps for this product. - [How to Set Up Proxmox VE](https://forgeone.solutions/en/tech/how-to-set-up-proxmox-ve) ## Review your Proxmox strategy We assess whether Proxmox fits your infrastructure, operating model and security requirements. - [Book a consultation](https://forgeone.solutions/en/contact#book-appointment)
