Hello there, I would go with proxmox since its free and you will have no costs for licenses. If you chose vmware, then you need licenses for the servers, also for the vcenter and so on. I recommend you use CentOS 6.7 x86_64 minimal install in order to have cPanel/WHM installed. Then you need a CloudLinux license for each of your hosting servers. For the DNS you should use the DNS Cluster function in cPanel/WHM so basically you need at least 2 DNS servers in different locations (they can be some basic VPS machines with small configuration like 1 cpu core and 1 gb ram memory, 15 gb disk space). Of coure you can use your own virtual machines in your own infrastructure but is good to have the dns servers both locally and remotely. For server security you will need: - a decent firewall which is free - a realtime malware scanner (two options here: one free but limited, another one commercial, the license is 60$/server (one time fee)). - for email (spam filter/virus scanner); you can use MailScanner and I would recommend to buy the MailScanner frontend plugin fro WHM (it will help you manage your server and also your cpanel users will be able to modify whitelist/blacklist rules for their accounts/domains and so on). Backups are best handled using R1Soft Restore Backups (7,5$ for each virtual machine/server) and you will need a main backup server (either virtual or dedicated) with enough storage to keep backups (10-14 days of backups). As for Windows hosting -> Plesk

It will be better use one server for Cpanel Hosting (linux), other for Windows Hosting (Plesk). If you need to provide VPS hosting, better have one more server.
