Proxmox Server Solutions has announced the stable release of Proxmox Virtual Environment (VE) 8.0, the latest version of its server virtualization management platform. Based on Debian 12 (“Bookworm”), this major release offers a seamless upgrade path for users of Proxmox VE 7.4 and older.
The updated version also leverages a newer Linux kernel 6.2 as the stable default, along with the latest versions of QEMU 8.0.2, LXC 5.0.2, ZFS 2.1.12, and Ceph Quincy 17.2.6, and other leading open-source technologies for virtual environments.
Proxmox VE 8.0 provides an intuitive web-based user interface and essential management tools for the convenient management of individual hosts or entire data centers. The platform enables users to use out-of-the-box tools, accessible through web browsers or the command line.
The latest version introduces several notable enhancements. The integration of Ceph Quincy brings a new level of convenience as it enables users to easily run and manage Ceph storage directly from any cluster node, simplifying the setup and management of hyper-converged infrastructures.
Additionally, the inclusion of a stable Enterprise repository expands access to all Proxmox customers with an active subscription. Another key feature is the introduction of authentication realm sync jobs, which automate the synchronization of LDAP-based realm users and groups, including LDAP and Microsoft Active Directory, at regular intervals. This automation reduces management complexity and minimizes configuration errors, giving an overall smoother experience for administrators.
Proxmox Virtual Environment 8.0 is available as free and open-source software. The complete feature set is included in the ISO, which can be installed on bare metal. The latest version can be downloaded from the Proxmox website.
