Proxmox allows deployment and management of virtual machines and containers.[7][8] It is based on a modified Ubuntu LTS kernel.[9] Two types of virtualization are supported: container-based with LXC (starting from version 4.0 replacing OpenVZ used in version up to 3.4, included[10]), and full virtualization with KVM.[11]
It includes a web-based management interface.[12][13] There is also a mobile application available for controlling PVE environments.[14]
