VMworld vCloud Air sessions on YouTube

By admin on October 22, 2014 in VMworld

These have been made available back in September, but I wanted to share with everyone the two VMware VMworld vCloud Air sessions that have been posted on the internet. While I am out in Macau in Asia presenting Tech Summit quite a few people have asked how they can view the VMworld sessions without a VMworld account. VMworld publish the top 10 sessions of the day on YouTube, so if you couldn’t attend VMworld and don’t have an account, you can still watch the top 10 sessions. VMworld vCloud Air sessions The first one published is session HBC2068 – vCloud Air Networking Technical Deep Dive This is presented by Ninad Desai (Networking Product Manager) and myself.

By admin on October 8, 2014 in VMworld

I am putting the final touches to my presentations for VMworld Barcelona 2014. Its an exciting time, and I am looking forward to presenting these sessions again. They scored really well in the US, so I hope that they will be great, valuable and informative sessions for everyone. Session Number Session Title Abstract Date / Time HBC1533 How to build a Hybrid Cloud – Steps to Extend your Datacenter This session will help attendees understand the various steps to build and extended datacenter to vCloud Hybrid Service. Generally, speaking customers find it easier to view the vCHS cloud as just another datacenter. However instead of being physical it is all software defined and available on demand. We will leverage examples and use cases from current customers, as well as, review a specific setup the vCHS Technical Marketing team has built in a “Customer” Lab. We will also explore the networking […]

By admin on May 17, 2014 in Microsoft

Right time for my whole Microsoft TechEd 2014 Recap. Where to start? There can be only one place to start! VMware Virtual SAN was the winner of best Virtualization at TechEd! Lets say that again, VMware Virtual SAN won best of Microsoft TechEd. Brilliant! TechEd 2014 Recap Right, thats enough boasting and gloating!

Microsoft TechEd Review – Day 2

By admin on May 14, 2014 in Microsoft

Here we are on Day 2 on the Microsoft TechEd Review. Its going quickly. The days are long, but the learning never stops. You can read my Day 1 initial review here. The first session of the day: Migrating effortlessly from VMware to Hyper-V (it wasn’t very effortless for sure) Now I don’t like to criticise people for presenting, standing up in front of people is one of the hardest things in the world, so this is not a criticism of the presenters. However, the demo they tried to show did not work. It failed on a simple part, and it really didn’t look that effortless to me. However, how long has virtualisation been around, and this product is only just coming out? Wow! VMware convertor has been around since for ever. This tool only allows you to move your VM’s offline. The other part of this session was how […]
