After a longer-than-expected trip back from VMworld Barcelona, I just want to share some of my photos from the recent VMworld events with all of you. I have several posts planned for the next couple of weeks, specifically around VMworld, the newly announced Pivotal Container Service (joint Kubernetes offering from VMware and Pivotal in partnership with Google) and much more. Stay tuned!

VMworld Tipp: Cloud-Native Applications & vSphere Integrated Containers

von

Die VMworld 2015 in Barcelona steht unmittelbar bevor. Eine Teilnahme an der VMworld hat für mich schon immer bedeutet über den eigenen Tellerrand zu schauen und ein Gefühl für die aktuellen Trends und Themen der nächsten Jahre zu bekommen. Dazu gehört natürlich auch der persönliche Austausch mit Kollegen aus anderen Firmen, Sessions, Labs, Diskussionsrunden und vieles mehr.

Auf die Frage nach den interessantesten Sessions zum Thema „Zukunft“ verweise ich in den letzten Wochen gern auf alles, was sich im Cloud-Native Applications (CNA) Bereich abspielt: die Sessions mit dem Kürzel „CNA“, die Hands-On Labs zum Thema, etc. Warum ich das Thema besonders für vSphere Administratoren und Manager von Virtualsierungsteams als wichtig ansehe werde ich in einem separaten Blogpost erläutern.

Als Teaser und 3:30min Zusammenfassung eines der wichtigsten Announcements rund um Cloud-Native Applications von der VMworld 2015 in San Francisco möchte ich an dieser Stelle auf ein Video hinweisen – viel Spaß mit vSphere Integrated Containers:
