Proxmox and Docker

Installation Guide

Answer a few questions and get advice on the best installation method (VM, LXC or Docker), with the guides that go with it.

What do you want to run?

What hardware do you have?

How much experience do you have with Linux?

Do you want to be able to quickly roll back after a mistake (snapshots)?

How many services will you eventually run?

What does this mean?

A program can run in multiple ways: directly on a computer, in a Docker container, in a lightweight LXC container, or in a full virtual machine (VM) on Proxmox. Each form has pros and cons. Answer the questions and you'll get recommendations with the steps and our guides that go with them.
