For anyone in and around Atlanta, make sure you make it to GWCC convention center for the VMUG UserCon 2015!
Atlanta has one of the busiest VMUG and I will be presenting on getting started with VMware NSX!
You can also meet up with Mariano Maluf – the president of VMUG and other big wigs as well.
Also get to meet Kelley O’Hara – from the national football team and am hoping to take a picture with her. She’s awesome!
See you there!
I wanted to do a quick write up to let you all know that I switched roles to join the Cloud Solutions Architects team at Rackspace.
In this new role I will be helping our Sales and the SE organization in architecting deep vmware and enterprise architectures –> read lot of white boarding and testing!
I will also be a liaison to help our Rackspace VMware product team, with whom I spent three years, to get more intelligible insight on customer requirements and trends to help in building new products which is exciting.
With that said I have been quite busy traveling to customer sites and also to VMUG user conferences. I recently presented at the Washington DC VMUG and the response was great.
If you are local or can make it to one of these VMUG user conferences, I strongly encourage you to do so.
I will soon get back to contributing and blogging once I settle down in my new role.
I never got a chance to write about my experience at the Boston VMUG conference that happened early October this year. I blame it on my default state of my mind – “procrastination!” 🙂
I had to now talk about how great it was after having got mentioned in Techtarget over a presentation that I and one of our product manager’s presented together. It certainly felt good to see the “press” – if I am allowed to call them that – taking note of how important DR was to a business and how important having it in a planned fashion really mattered.
Here is the link in case you want to read it.
I also got to meet a plethora of vendors and also some VMware gurus like Alastair, Jonathan, Matt and had a lunch with Scott Davis who was the former CTO of VMware’s End user computing business (IIRC).
All in all it was a great event, well organized, well taken care off and well attended!
