Preface

This book is well overdue in the world of virtualization. When I first came in contact with Proxmox several years ago, I did not have anything to fall back on other than Proxmox Wiki and forum. I learned Proxmox through lots of trial and error and very much had to reinvent wheels on my own in some cases. Since a lot of us went through the frustration and I personally do not feel others should have to invest a lot of time just to get to know Proxmox the hard way, this book has been written.

This book shows the inner workings of Proxmox including virtual network components, shared storage systems, nested virtualization, complex network topologies, and so on. With this book, we hope that the reader will be able to better equip themselves to face any virtualization challenges of any virtual infrastructure.
