VMware Explore is one month away and I cannot wait to be up in San Francisco enjoying the nice weather, seeing VMworld backpacks everywhere, some familiar faces, absorbing as much data as I can and simply making the best out of the show!
I also have tons of questions that are simply going through my mind, for example…
- Is vSphere ESXi 8 going to be announced during the general session this year?
- If so, what can we expect the main features to be?
- Are we ready for automatic memory tiering to be a thing?
- Is this going to be the last VMware Explore, or VMworld as we used to know it?
- How will the Broadcom acquisition affect that? Simply another name change? Or combined event?
- And so much more!
But below I get too ahead of myself, I wanted to share some of the sessions that I found interesting after reading the description in the content catalog this year.
