Managed IT solutions gain traction as companies seek infrastructure independence

Companies are increasingly re-evaluating their virtualization strategies to avoid technological and economic dependencies. There is a growing focus on open technologies and alternative operating models, particularly for business-critical workloads such as ERP and CRM systems, databases, and specialized applications that may not suit a standard public cloud environment.

Managed Private Cloud approaches, such as those based on Proxmox, offer a way to maintain control over infrastructure while reducing operational complexity. These managed models can handle setup, monitoring, networking, updates, and lifecycle management, allowing IT teams to focus on core business processes rather than routine server administration.

According to DM Solutions GmbH, small and medium-sized enterprises face significant challenges in managing increasing IT requirements, including security updates, system monitoring, and backup concepts. Utilizing managed server solutions allows companies to free up internal resources that would otherwise be tied up in technical maintenance, enabling them to focus on digital business development and new projects.
