Düsseldorf, September 28, 2026 — COCUS and Proxmox are expanding their collaboration in the field of open virtualization and infrastructure solutions. Together, the two companies are helping customers build resilient and future-proof IT infrastructures that meet the growing demands for availability, cost-effectiveness, and digital sovereignty.
This partnership provides businesses with an open alternative for the further development of their virtualisation environment. COCUS combines Proxmox’s open-source technology with its own expertise in integration and operations, helping customers to reduce existing dependencies, make costs more predictable in the long term and gain greater control over their IT infrastructure.
Open-source virtualisation as a technological foundation
The Proxmox platform combines virtualisation, containers, software-defined storage and backup in a single, fully open-source solution. Development and support are carried out within Europe. The platform thus provides the technological foundation for flexible and secure virtualisation environments.
From architecture to operations
COCUS supports clients throughout the entire process, from analysing existing environments and developing the target architecture, through high-availability and backup strategies, to migration and ongoing operational support. This enables existing virtualisation environments to be migrated to open technologies in a structured manner, thereby reducing the technical and organisational complexity of a platform change.
Customers receive consultancy, provisioning, implementation, migration and support all from a single source. In this way, COCUS combines open virtualisation technology with the expertise required for the implementation and long-term operation of business-critical IT infrastructures.
Through this partnership, COCUS is expanding its infrastructure portfolio and providing customers with an additional way to set up their virtualisation environment in a resilient, flexible and future-proof manner.
