Why do you need vSphere for self hosting

What I am missing is ESXi/vSphere.
Would be quite important for the few people that have access to the eval ressources to set it up.
Same for the BSD versions. I think Beehive?

You ask for a “why deploy this [software]” in this community?
Anyway…Simply: Why not

Proxmox does clustering and should have most of the same features. While you are welcome to run whatever you want I think vSphere is getting a bit pricey.

Not even just pricey, but unpurchasable in many cases. Broadcom is really fucking it up

Sure, ESXi would have been interesting. I thought about that, but I did not test it because it is not interesting to me anymore from a business perspective. And I am not keen of using it in my Homelab, so I left that out and use that time to do something relaxing. It’s my holiday right now :-)

VMware’s predatory practices make wary of their products. I’m avoiding it for all new installs.

Totally fair. Just as a suggestion.
