PRIVATE CLOUD - MANAGED PROXMOX VE - QUOTE-BASED · 99.9% SLA

Your private cloud. Fully managed.

Proxmox VE clusters on enterprise hardware, run by our engineers - HA quorum from 3 nodes, Ceph or ZFS storage, live migration, PBS backups, 24/7 monitoring. You create the VMs and containers; we run everything underneath. Prefer to run the stack yourself? Bare metal clusters exist for that.

REF. 00 - THE SHORT ANSWER

AlphaVPS Proxmox Cloud = a fully managed private cloud on Proxmox VE. We procure the hardware, build the HA cluster (3-node quorum minimum), configure Ceph/ZFS storage, apply every update node-by-node with live migration (zero downtime), and monitor 24/7. You keep full PVE web UI + REST API admin, BYOIP /24+ and BYOASN via BGP on AS203380, private VLANs, 10–100G interconnects, PBS backups included. Quote-based flat monthly pricing, 99.9% SLA, 7 locations EU + US. Since 2013.

01 THE SPLIT WHO RUNS WHAT

Enterprise virtualization. Zero ops burden.

There is exactly one line in this service, and it sits under your VMs. Everything below it - hardware, hypervisor, storage health, patching, paging - is ours. Everything above it is yours, with full admin.

02 THE FAILOVER DRILL CLICK A NODE - WATCH HA REACT

Kill a node. Nothing dies.

Three nodes is the quorum minimum for a reason. Fail any node below - the HA manager restarts its VMs on surviving hardware and Ceph re-replicates placement groups. Fail enough to lose quorum, and you'll see exactly why we won't sell you two.

05 STORAGE BACKENDS MIX BACKENDS IN ONE CLUSTER

Storage shaped to the I/O.

Distributed, local, or thin - each backend optimizes a different I/O profile, all with PBS backup integration. Mix them per-VM within the same cluster.

DISTRIBUTED - DEFAULTB-01
Ceph - replication / EC The HA default. Triple replication for maximum resilience, or erasure coding for storage efficiency. Self-healing - recovers from node failures automatically.

Managed cloud vs DIY.

Proxmox VE is open source - you could absolutely run this yourself. Here is exactly what you'd be taking on.

08 FAQ

Common questions.

Everything operators ask before handing us their private cloud. Still unsure - ask a human.

CONTACT SALES

A fully managed private cloud on Proxmox VE. We buy and rack the hardware, build the cluster, install and patch Proxmox, and watch it 24/7. You get full web UI and API admin for VMs and containers - and never a hypervisor pager duty. Want the opposite deal? Bare metal clusters hand you the raw hardware instead.

Three - quorum needs a majority vote, so a 3-node cluster survives one node failure. Production estates usually run 7+ for better fault tolerance and storage flexibility. The failover drill above shows exactly what happens below quorum.

Ceph is the default: triple replication for maximum resilience, or erasure coding for storage efficiency. ZFS on local NVMe (~200K+ IOPS) when a VM needs maximum I/O. LVM-Thin for ephemeral workloads like CI runners. Backends mix freely within one cluster.

Yes. Provide a Letter of Authorization and we announce your /24 or larger prefix from AS203380. BYOASN works too - peer with your own autonomous system for custom routing policies and multi-homed setups.

Isolated Layer 2 segments between your cluster nodes - traffic never touches the public internet. Configure them via Proxmox's SDN module or standard Linux bridges; the physical switch configuration is handled on our side.

Node-by-node: VMs live-migrate off, the node patches and reboots, VMs return. Zero downtime, by construction. Critical security patches land within 24 hours of release.

Proxmox Backup Server ships with every cluster - incremental, deduplicated backups with daily/weekly/monthly retention, optionally replicated to a second datacenter for disaster recovery. Manual snapshots from the web UI at any time.

99.9% uptime on the infrastructure layer - hardware, network and hypervisor availability. Service credits are applied automatically if uptime falls below the threshold. The network is redundant at every layer.

Yes, free. Our managed services team plans and executes the move - VM transfers, storage migration, network reconfiguration. Online and offline methods, depending on your downtime tolerance.
