Face-to-face lessons on our laptops
The day camp will take place at our premises in the 3rd district near U3 Gasometer station. You will work on a LINUX based computer. For our Hypervisor Camp we will use 1 or 2 local servers – depending on the number of participants – and primarily work with Proxmox.
Lunch
For lunch, we visit a restaurant not far from our camp. Usually there is a buffet where you can help yourself to your heart’s content. Water, raspberry and elderberry juice are also included. If you have special food requests, we will of course take this into account. You can let us know your wishes before the camp starts!
Drones & 3D Printers
In our large IT room there are also drones and 3D printers that we can try out together. Let your creativity run wild, print out your design and take it home with you. If you like, you can also take one of our drones for a spin!
Questions & answers about the camp
What is the concrete benefit of the summer camp for me?
You will immerse yourself in the complex topic of hypervisors with your camp colleagues for 5 hours a day. Our trainers will explain everything to you and prepare exercises for you, which you can solve on your own or in a team with your colleagues - making it even more fun to get active together! You will be supervised all day by a cool team of trainers who will always be on hand with help and advice.
What happens if I don't understand something or it becomes too boring for me?
We have enough trainers available for you. So there is always the possibility to help you individually, or to go through topics separately or in a small group that may still seem too complex for others. In general, the VM / Hypervisor topic is very complex, so we are sure to always find something for you 🙂
Is there also play at the holiday camp?
If your virtual machine is running and you can install a game (e.g. Minecraft server), then we'll play a round - promise!
Can I use my VM from home?
During the camp, you can also reach our server from home! If you want to continue using it beyond that, talk to us, we will surely find a good wag for it!
Proxmox: A Brief Introduction
In today’s digital world, it is increasingly important to deal with different technologies and software solutions. One of these technologies is Proxmox, a software that is particularly known for managing virtual machines and servers. But what exactly is Proxmox, and why should you know more about it as a student? In this article, we’ll explain what Proxmox is and how it works.
What is Proxmox?
Proxmox is an open-source software that allows you to run multiple virtual machines (VMs) on a single computer or server. A virtual machine is basically a “computer within a computer” that runs on a real computer, but pretends to be its own, independent computer. So, Proxmox is a program that helps you create and manage many small “computers” that all run simultaneously on a single real computer.
What makes Proxmox special is that it can not only create a virtual machine, but it also supports containers . Containers are a simpler and easier way to isolate and manage software. So, with Proxmox, you can run both virtual machines and containers on one server.
What is Proxmox used for?
Proxmox is mostly used by IT professionals, web developers , and system administrators to efficiently manage large servers. It’s especially useful in schools, universities, or businesses that need to run many different applications or systems at the same time.
Here are some applications where Proxmox can be very helpful:
- Virtual machines for school projects: You can use Proxmox to create different virtual machines to test different operating systems (e.g. Linux, Windows) or to develop programs for a school project.
- Manage web pages or databases: Many schools or small businesses use Proxmox to run servers for websites or databases. Proxmox makes it easier to manage multiple websites or applications without the need for many physical servers.
- Learning and practicing: If you’re interested in IT or computer science, Proxmox is a great way to learn and practice managing servers and virtual machines.
How does Proxmox work?
Proxmox works on a server or computer that provides the resources (such as CPU, RAM, and disk space). You install Proxmox on this computer and can then create virtual machines or containers that run independently of the physical computer. This means you can run multiple systems at the same time without having to buy multiple computers.
- Installation: You download Proxmox from the official website and install it on a server or a powerful computer.
- To create virtual machines: Once installed, you can easily create virtual machines with Proxmox. Each VM has its own operating system and programs.
- Management via the web interface: Proxmox offers a user-friendly web interface that allows you to manage your virtual machines and containers. You can start, stop, restart, and adjust resources (such as memory and disk space).
Why should you get to know Proxmox as a student?
Proxmox is a great way for students to learn more about managing computers and servers. If you have an interest in tech and IT, working with Proxmox can help you develop important skills for the future. Here are some reasons why you should get to know Proxmox:
- Learning through practice: Proxmox allows you to see first-hand how servers and virtual machines work, and you can gain hands-on experience.
- Promotion of teamwork: In many school projects, it is important to work together with others. With Proxmox, you can share and work on virtual machines and servers.
- Ready for the future: In the modern professional world, knowledge of server management and virtualization of systems is in high demand. With Proxmox, you can learn something today that will help you in many technical professions.
Result
Proxmox is a powerful and easy-to-use software that allows you to manage virtual machines and servers efficiently. For students interested in technology and IT, Proxmox is a great way to learn important skills and gain hands-on experience. Whether you’re running a school project or just want to learn something new, Proxmox offers you plenty of ways to explore the world of computers and servers.
Secure your place on the desired date today!
Experience has shown that the vacation camps are already heavily booked at the beginning of the year, and especially after the semester break. So make sure you secure your place in good time – we work in small groups, so places are very limited. Please ask your parents to register for the vacation camp now!

What others say about us
My son was at Minecraft summer camp and was completely thrilled. At first he thought he already knew his way around and knew everything. He has learned a lot and we have already had to rent a server for him. Now he often plays with his friends on his own server! Thank you very much!

Our daughter was totally thrilled with the Minecraft Camp. She only knew the game from hearsay and now wanted to try it out herself. The patient trainers have shown her everything, and she can now build small houses, and is very happy about her chicken coop, which she built herself and filled with chickens.
