UKServers Partners with Proxmox for Hypervisor Solutions

UK Servers Becomes a Proxmox Authorised Reseller 

We are proud to announce that UK Servers has officially joined the Proxmox Partner Programme as an Authorised Reseller – making us one of only a small number of officially recognised Proxmox resellers in the United Kingdom.

This is not a partnership we have rushed into. UK Servers has been deploying, managing, and supporting Proxmox environments for our customers since 2021, building deep technical expertise across real-world production workloads. Becoming an authorised reseller is the natural next step and recognition of the work our engineers have put in over the past five years.

What This Means for Our Customers

As an Authorised Reseller, UK Servers can now supply official Proxmox licensing for all three products in the Proxmox portfolio, directly backed by Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH:

• Proxmox Virtual Environment (VE) — the open-source hypervisor platform for managing virtual machines and containers at scale, built on KVM and LXC.
• Proxmox Backup Server (PBS) — enterprise-grade incremental backup for VMs, containers, and physical hosts with deduplication and encryption.
• Proxmox Mail Gateway (PMG) — a powerful open-source email security solution providing spam and virus filtering at the mail gateway level.

Beyond licensing, the partnership gives our team enhanced access to Proxmox’s technical support channels and pre-sales resources, meaning we can design and deliver more complex Proxmox-based infrastructure solutions with greater confidence and speed.

Private Cloud & Failover Hosting Powered by Proxmox

Proxmox VE sits at the heart of many of the enterprise-grade solutions we deliver to our customers. Here is what we can now offer with even greater capability and official vendor backing:

Private Cloud Hosting

Our Private Cloud Hosting solution is built on Proxmox VE clusters, giving you a fully UK-sovereign, sole-tenant virtual environment with high availability shared storage. Unlike public cloud, your workloads run exclusively on your own hardware in our Coventry datacentre – giving you the flexibility of virtualisation without the noisy-neighbour problems, unpredictable billing, or data sovereignty concerns of hyperscale providers.

Our private cloud environments support Ceph distributed storage for truly resilient, redundant data storage across multiple nodes – with no single point of failure.

Failover Server Replication

Proxmox’s built-in replication engine powers our Failover Server Replication service. We can configure near-real-time VM replication between two physical hosts, so that if your primary server experiences any issue, your virtualised workloads can be brought online on a secondary host within minutes – automatically or with a single click from our engineers.

This is particularly valuable for customers running business-critical applications, e-commerce platforms, and SaaS products where downtime directly means lost revenue.

Managed Proxmox – Fully Supported by UK Engineers

What sets UK Servers apart is not just the platform – it is the people behind it. Every Proxmox environment we manage is looked after by our in-house team of highly trained engineers based in our Coventry NOC, available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We do not offshore our support, we do not rely on third-party contractors, and we do not pass you to a ticket queue when something goes wrong at 3am.

We handle the full lifecycle: initial design and capacity planning, hardware procurement, Proxmox installation and cluster configuration, storage setup, network integration, ongoing monitoring, patch management, and incident response.

“Proxmox has been a core part of how we deliver enterprise hosting for years — we use it ourselves across our own infrastructure, and we have built some genuinely complex, high-availability environments for our customers on top of it. Becoming an authorised reseller is recognition of that commitment, and it means we can now offer the full Proxmox stack with official licensing, direct vendor support access, and the confidence that comes from being a verified partner. We are excited about what this opens up for our managed customers.”

Why Proxmox?

In a market dominated by proprietary hypervisors with eye-watering per-socket or per-VM licensing costs, Proxmox VE stands out as a genuinely enterprise-ready open-source alternative. It is built on solid, well-understood Linux foundations (Debian), uses KVM for full hardware virtualisation and LXC for lightweight containers, and comes with a comprehensive web-based management interface that makes day-to-day operations straightforward.

For businesses looking to move away from the cost and complexity of VMware – particularly in the wake of Broadcom’s acquisition and the significant licensing changes that followed – Proxmox VE has become the leading alternative. UK Servers is ideally placed to assist with VMware-to-Proxmox migrations, from planning through to execution and ongoing management.
