As we enter into VMworld planning season (and you thought it was summer…), I’ve had a chance to review the Content Catalog and put together a list of recommended sessions:
Note: get registering fast…I’m already hearing of many sessions that are full, especially NSX ones! If a session is full make sure you get on the waitlist (See page 11 of the Schedule Builder Guide) in case someone drops their registration or a new time is added for that same session.
