+1 for beelink. Little PCs are powerful. Call me paranoid but direct windows install shipped from China skeevs me out, but wiping it and putting linux on it makes it a great little server
yep Proxmox + VMs is the way I'm setting this new one up to replace a few PIs.
Should end up running HomeAssistant, a security dashboard (with HDMI output to my video distribution rig) and whatever horsepower is left will be on demand for a video compression server node running Fileflows or Unmanic. if I can get GVT-G working properly, otherwise the dashboard and video encoder will share a VM with the full gpu. I just want to play with GVT-G.
Why would I go with proxmox rather than only a ubuntu server with docker and portainer as front end?
No reason one way or the other. I just like trying different things pretty often.
Haha ok make sense
If you have no need for a nice UI for VMs/Containers then there's no reason. You can do everything proxmox does with CLI but with a lot more effort.
If I'm not mistaken, proxmox does not support container right?
It does, it uses LXC containers.
I have to learn about lxc container, I'm use to docker container but lxc is a mystery for me haha. Thanks
LXC is a lot more like a VM, where you just get an OS and you have to set up things inside. Whereas docker is pre-made images that are already set up and ready to go.
Ok so will it use the Kernel of its host or it will have its own ?
Containers use the kernel of the host, you can use a VM if you don't want that.
