  • I found proxmox and docker to be fairly incompatible, and went through many iterations of different things to make it work well. Docker in VMs, Docker in LXC, Docker on the host (which felt redundant as hell). Proxmox is an amazing hypervisor, but then I realized I didn’t really need a hypervisor since I was mostly running containers.

    My recommendations:

    • No need for VMs Just run debian and run containers on it

    • Some VMs, Mostly containers, 1 host Run proxmox, and create a VM in proxmox for your contianer workloads

    • Some VMs, Mostly containers, >1 host, easy mode Same as above, but make one host debian and the other one proxmox

    • Some VMs, Mostly Containers, >1 host, hard mode but worth it after 2 years Use kubernetes, I use k3s. Some nodes are just debian with k3s on them, others are running in VMs on proxmox using the extra compute available. This has a massive learning curve though, it took me well into a year to finally having it at a state I like it - but I’ll never go back.
