Another host going from Proxmox to FreeBSD/bhyve

@outofcontrol @justine if you have time, I've explained why here (there's a part on a migration from Proxmox to FreeBSD): https://it-notes.dragas.net/2024/10/03/i-solve-problems-eurobsdcon/
Also, but it's not primary: https://it-notes.dragas.net/2024/06/10/proxmox-vs-freebsd-which-virtualization-host-performs-better/

@stefano I went through your EuroBSDcon post. Thanks for writing up these resources!
Of course BSD is more stable, secure, and efficient. It makes imminent sense as a base layer for infrastructure or even desktop.
What's the equivalent of Proxmox on BSD for web-based provisioning/configuration of jails/VMs? I''m considering this migration myself. -

I'd use it in my homelab, probably not in prod (yet)
I still prefer, when possible, the "good old" vm-bhyve and BastilleBSD. Just a sh script, able to manage the entire lifecycle of the VM or jails. No overhead at all.
