I submitted a talk proposal about #PegaProx for #Proxmox at the #FrOSCon 2026. Let’s see if it gets accepted. If you’re there - feel free to reach out to me! Happy to meet!

#FrOSCon is all about Free Software and Open Source and takes place soon - with @[email protected] GmbH and hopefully me 😅

Every year in late summer, FrOSCon brings together people who are passionate about Free Software and Open Source. The event is organized by the Department of Computer Science at Bonn Rhein Sieg University together with the FrOSCon e.V. and offers many interesting talks, workshops, project booths, and opportunities to connect with others from the community.

What I really like about FrOSCon is the atmosphere. Developers, companies, contributors, and open source enthusiasts come together to exchange ideas, learn from each other, and simply have a good time. The social event on Saturday evening is also always a great opportunity for networking and interesting conversations.

I am very proud that we as #credativ will be part of FrOSCon this year as a stand partner. It is a great chance for us to present our open source-projects (like #ProxLB, #ProxPatch, #ProxSnap, [...] but also all the other ones like #Plutono/#Vali and the credativ-pg-migrator for #PostgreSQL) and meet so many people from the community in person again.

At the moment I am unfortunately still unsure if I can attend personally, because I would also love to prepare a talk about #PegaProx for #Proxmox VE based clusters and share the story behind it, the progress over time, and some of the challenges and experiences along the way.

LET'S MAKE #OPENSOURCE TOGETHER!

#PegaProx just got released in v0.9.8 which comes with a built-in #Prometheus exporter. Guess what? Yep! It was time to create and ship the related #Grafana dashboard. All metrics belong to you…

Sehr schön! Glücklicherweise könnte man ja sehr gut die Zeit mit #ProxLB und #PegaProx überbrücken :)

#ProxLB on steroids in #PegaProx for #Proxmox - and more!

Predictive Load Balancing of VM guests (based on scores for CPU, RAM & IO)
ISO Template sync
Enhanced PDF reports
Syslog server & overview enhanced (FTS5 DB schema improvement & UI)
And much more (see changelog)

The latest update from yesterday evening fixes a lot of things and adds several smaller features! Thanks Nico Schmidt for pushing the release!

You asked for it, you get it! Custom ACME backend in #PegaProx for your #Proxmox VE based clusters - allowing any ACME supported CA!

Okay, I just ran into a similar issue which re-prioritized it higher for me to implement... But hey, here it is! You can now also use ACME with any other ACME compatible CAs rather than just Let's Encrypt. In this example, you can see it with my own Certificate Authority (CA) "gyptazy open-source solutions", which is operated by StepCA.

I'm really happy to see how PegaProx becomes better and better every day... Over Easter, several new cool features took place!

If you miss anything, let us know!

Adding the new #syslog feature to #PegaProx for #Proxmox clusters during Easter is basically: hiding eggs → finding eggs → realizing some eggs are actually critical alerts

For real, many people asked me for their smaller and mid-sized environments, how to handle remote syslog of their nodes. I had some ideas (some of you may have already found my Rust interpretation of this) but I think having this included in #PegaProx as a centralized management interface makes more sense.

So, PegaProx comes with an own syslog server (ipv4/ipv6, udp/tcp, encrypted/unencrypted support) and is wired to the interface within the resources tab. Providing a quick overview of all your logs and filter options. The next thing is wiring it to the notification system of PegaProx, allowing automated alerting. Might be nice to quickly identify when the quorum got lost - all built-in into PegaProx!

Last week I had several meetings with customers where I also showcased the #PegaProx project for #Proxmox.

The feedback was honestly amazing. Many were impressed by how PegaProx brings essential enterprise grade features to Proxmox clusters that are still missing today. We can clearly see the gaps that were fixed by #ProxLB, #ProxSnap, #ProxCLMC, #ProxPatch and many other ones! Keep in mind, PegaProx is free and fully #opensource!

That said, we know there's always room for improvement. Whether it is major enhancements or small quality of life tweaks, every detail matters. Over the weekend, I took your feedback from the calls seriously and integrated a number of improvements to make PegaProx even more intuitive and powerful.

Your input drives this project forward. If you feel something is missing or could be improved, let us know!

PS: Pegaprox also support #XCP (#XCPng) ans corss-cluster / cross-hypervisor migrations. So, you can quickly jump over to XCP 🙂
