Corporate Server Infrastructure: Virtualization, Database, Storage & Mail
ChallengeCompany operations rely on many servers with different roles
ERP, production database, media storage, and corporate email run on separate servers — hypervisor, database, object storage, mail gateway, and mail server. All must stay up, secure, and monitored, without a dedicated in-house infrastructure team.
SolutionOne point of accountability for the entire server fleet
Proxmox VE Virtualization
19 VMs run on Proxmox VE 9 — ERP, production & staging databases, AI worker (Ollama 64GB), webmail, and WhatsApp API — with ±21TB total storage.
Database & Object Storage
PostgreSQL 16 on a dedicated server (chas_app 3.9GB + n8n) for ERP, and 8TB MinIO as object storage for media & attachments.
Mail Gateway & Mail Server
Proxmox Mail Gateway 8.2 filters incoming email before Zimbra 8.8 (42 accounts) — gateway uptime of 205+ days with regular maintenance.
ResultsWhat Changed After Launch
