We are considering alternatives but not shifted, wondered if anyone had looked at/implemented Platform9?

We're in the process of migrating to Proxmox VE (KVM-based)

Open source so we'll only pay for support; and now supported by Veeam, our standard backup platform.

We also considered Hyper-V but their migration to the Azure tools seems like work in process.

We are dealing with a specific issue in our VDI non-persistent environment, which operates using Omnissa Horizon (formerly VMware). We are employing a hybrid join for authentication that integrates ADFS and Entra ID.   Here are the details of our problem:   1. **Environment**: VDI non-persistent using Omnissa Horizon 2. **Authentication Method**: Hybrid join with ADFS and Entra ID 3. **Issue**: Users are experiencing difficulties authenticating to Microsoft 365 apps within the virtual machine. The authentication process gets stuck in a loop when attempting to access the smartcard. I would appreciate any insights or experiences from others who have encountered similar issues or have a similar environment working successfully.

Our business is in financial services and we are on the cross roads on rejuvenating the server of our core Oracle database. Previously we are using an Oracle's SPARC (Solaris) server, but we got some signals that several of our peers in industry have moved out from Solaris SPARC based server to modern x86 servers. What do you think on the future of Solaris SPARC? Is it still a worthy investment? And do you think their RAS (reliability, availability, scalability) selling point, is still significantly relevant differentiation with x86 modern server?
