It was a very hectic first full conference day so thought I should "(b)log" what happened. It started very early as vBreakfast was on the agenda and I wanted to get there by 7 AM - its start time. It's an event organised by Manfred "Fred" Hofer and is a great way to meet up, before [...]
vSphere 6 brought a huge number of changes upon release. They not only included changes to it's architecture but there great new features as well that made vSphere Architects very excited. That was about a year and a half ago and so a major update was due. Enter vSphere 6.5: It introduces so many new features [...]
Hope you are coming to VMworld 2016 Europe this year. If you haven't booked yet, there's still time. Go to the registration link here and book now. Done? Good! Now you might be a first-timer or a seasoned VMworld Europe attendee. In either case, it doesn't hurt to be reminded about what's important to remember when [...]
So, it was the last day. It had been quite a hectic week so far (as always) but activities were still going strong. First order of the day was for me to get to the venue, leave my suitcase with the bag drop and get the update post for day 2 published that I wasn't able to [...]
On Day 2, I got to the venue early and published my update for Day 1 of VMworld Europe 2015. Once that was done, it was time for some breakfast and lots of coffee. It is customary to start Day 2 with a General Session and this time, it was EUC (End User Computing) and NSX's [...]
Yesterday was Day 1 of the main event. I got to the venue, bright and early, and helped myself to a great selection of bakery items. Also, didn't forget to fill me up with lots of caffeine, which I so desperately needed. I've only attended VMworld in Barcelona so not sure if the US version is [...]
Yes, after the confusion last year on what number are the days, I've decided to go for a neutral name. Avoids all the naming issues (unlike the products we work with every day!) Got to Barcelona at about noon on Sunday and checked in. Had to sacrifice the start of Russian GP (Formula 1) but hey, [...]
Like many of you, I am also looking forward to attending VMworld this year. I have a feeling that this year, VMware has left a bit more for Barcelona than last year and I hope my hunch is right. Just thought I should do a quick post, listing the sessions I have booked for myself, [...]
Like last year, I am attending VMworld EMEA as an official blogger. VMware has kindly granted me a pass for keeping you all informed with all the activities, technical or not. Having attended a few of these now, I thought it would be a good idea to jot down a few pointers, in case you [...]
... and so the last day was upon me. Sort of a reality check that all the learning and meeting people is going to end (not to mention the great weather!) and soon it'll be time to say goodbyes. I've found that checking out is much easier if you're too early or too late. If [...]
