Where do you work that a single sysadmin manages 3000 VMs?
- rwmj 8d agoWe're running a migration from VMware to Red Hat Openshift Virt for one customer right now which is over 150,000 VMs. That's a big one, but five figure number of VMs is very typical. I gave a 5 min lightning talk about this a couple of years back: https://pretalx.com/devconf-cz-2024/talk/SN93LG/ https://pretalx.com/devconf-cz-2024/talk/SN93LG/ People talking here about Proxmox make me laugh.
