THE PROXINATOR VM8

The standalone server market offers a range of viable options, each with its own pros and cons. Legacy storage vendors deliver enterprise-grade reliability and high-density storage, bundled with single-PO purchasing for hardware, service, and more. However, their proprietary nature locks customers in, limiting flexibility and introducing uncertainty at contract renewal time.

On the other end of the spectrum, offshore-built hardware options are inexpensive but come with unknown build quality and are typically sold as hardware-only with minimal support. While they can form the foundation for DIY solutions using open-source software — offering cost-effective, flexible setups with the long-term security of an open-source license — in the enterprise market, this often brings unacceptable project risks and demands maintaining specialized knowledge.

The Proxinator VM8 offers a new path. It's a turnkey solution that combines open-source virtualization with direct access to high-speed storage. This powerful hardware comes pre-installed with Proxmox Virtual Environment (VE) and includes comprehensive service for configuration, virtual machine (VM) migration, and ongoing support. It's a ready-to-deploy solution backed by a single point of accountability to keep everything running.

With 45Drives behind it, the Proxinator delivers the dependability of traditional infrastructure solutions without the limitations of vendor lock-in. Choosing the Proxinator means simplicity, performance, and a better experience across configuration, migration, training, and support. Most importantly, you avoid the risk of sudden vendor-imposed changes. With us, you're in control.
