I personally would love to setup a new infra with Oxide systems. But for 10 VMs anything will work. If you've looked into Oxide maybe you will like SmartOS to bootstrap a small infra. Otherwise Nomad, proxmox, LXC, even VMWare is fine. If I think I need something more "serious" (understand supported/scalable with some robust cloud-like api) I would look into cloudstack from apache, which seems a lot cleaner than openstack [Removing the part about VMWare as I saw the comment about self-sufficiency]

Thanks. I expect we will eventually have a rack of servers - currently they operate their applications from a couple of full and very busy blade chassis - but I’m aiming low for the time being since we’re just getting started.

I’ll check out cloudstack. Thanks!
