My Cloud Newsletter for March

March 21, 2012 14 Comments

So actually this is the Your Cloud Newsletter that I create for my private clients, but my english minor half had to play with the wording in the title.  So much good stuff in this month’s edition that I decided to redact the private stuff and share the rest with you!

VMworld 2012

Have you budgeted for VMworld 2012 yet? Seems like no matter how early we tell everyone about VMworld, people tend to get the green light and register just weeks before the event…and then can’t get into the sessions they want.  So make sure you start your planning now!

  • VMworld San Francisco: August 27-30, 2012
  • VMworld Barcelona: October 9-11, 2012

And here’s a ROI message incase your need to convince your boss.

vExpert Nominations Open

Is one of your co-workers a VMware Guru? Are they so dedicated to their Guru status that they blog about it after work? Then help make their Guru status official by nominating them to be a 2012 vExpert.
