Proxmox Backup Server 4.0 Released with Debian 13 Base
A day after releasing Proxmox Virtual Environment 9.0, Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH has just unveiled its Backup Server 4.0, an open-source, enterprise-grade backup solution specifically designed for backing up VMs, containers, and physical hosts, built upon Debian 13 “Trixie.”
One of the standout features in this new release is native support for S3-compatible object storage, so users can seamlessly integrate Proxmox Backup Server with scalable and budget-friendly cloud solutions.
By leveraging local caching to minimize API calls, the system efficiently manages backup metadata and frequently accessed data chunks, optimizing performance and lowering costs. Additionally, backups remain accessible even if the primary server instance goes offline, significantly boosting disaster recovery capabilities.

Proxmox Virtual Environment 9.0 released!
We are pleased to announce the first stable release of Proxmox Virtual Environment v9.0 - immediately available for download!
The new version is based on the great Debian 13 "Trixie" but we're using a newer Linux kernel 6.14.8-2 as stable default in Proxmox VE. Beyond the core system updates, we've also refreshed many of our included technologies. You'll find updated versions of essential software like QEMU 10.0.2, LXC 6.0.4, ZFS 2.3.3, and Ceph Squid 19.2.3, all integrated seamlessly.
We're incredibly proud of the hard work that has gone into this release and can't wait for you to experience it.

Austrian FOSS vendor Proxmox, which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, has released new versions of its Debian-based hypervisor Proxmox Virtual Environment and its companion product Proxmox Backup Server. Both are based on Debian 13.
The release notes for Proxmox VE 9.0 form part of the product roadmap, but there is also a more discursive press release for the new version. Proxmox is built from several separate FOSS products, integrated and presented with a custom web management UI.
