There exists some features about Live-Migration of LX-Containers with LXD and CRIU.
Is this something that can be done with Proxmox or is already existing or on the Roadmap?

see (among other threads): https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/proxmox-lxd.37052

the underlying technology is not there (yet?), and given the reduced amount of isolation containers provide compared to VMs, there might be obstacles that are not easily overcome for the general case (i.e., live-migrating a container without any network access and a limited amount of storage interface might be doable, migrating a regular one under load is an entirely different beast).
