Veeam and Microsoft Tech·Ed 2010

Posted by in Conference |


It’s always fun trying to pick themes for Tradeshows. With VMworld we can pretty much pick any theme since everyone there is part of our target audience. With Microsoft Tech·Ed the decision is a bit more difficult…how do we appeal just to select audience members that manage VMware?

OK, maybe that wasn’t so difficult after all.

If you’re going to be in New Orleans June 7-10, please stop by the Veeam booth and learn all about how you can manage VMware with Microsoft System Center. We’re going to have a good size booth and plenty of engineers on hand to demo our Veeam nworks Management Pack 5.5, including our new PRO Pack for SCVMM that we announced back at the Microsoft Management Summit.

Besides product demos we’re also going to be giving away “Got VMware” t-shirts and we’ll also have raffle drawings during the show where we’re giving away a free copy of Train Signal’s System Center Operations Manager Training. We’d like to thank our friends at Train Signal for working with us on this raffle. The drawing times for the raffle are below, make sure you’re at the Veeam booth for your chance to win.

  • Monday 8 p.m.
  • Tuesday 4:30
  • Wednesday 4:30
  • Thursday 2:45

The Veeam Team looks forward to seeing everyone in New Orleans!

Veeam and Microsoft Management Summit 2010

Posted by in Microsoft |


I’m really looking forward to my first MMS experience next week in Las Vegas. Veeam is a gold sponsor at MMS this year and with good reason, we have some exciting announcements to make. If you listen to my Chinwag with Mike Laverick, you’ll get an idea of what those announcements are (around 28 minutes in). I’m not going to write about those announcements yet, I’ll do a post after MMS and share my thoughts on what I learned as well as the reaction we get regarding our Microsoft System Center strategy moving forward.

The giveaways!

Of course people want to know what kind of swag they can expect from Veeam when they visit our booth #111. We will have our popular “blinky luggage tags” as well as some fine branded USB drives (loaded with Veeam goodness), but what about the “big giveaway”? I’m happy to announce that we’ll also be giving away copies of the latest and greatest book on Microsoft System Center Operations Manager: System Center Operations Manager 2007 R2 Unleashed by Kerrie Meyler, Cameron Fuller, John Joyner, Andy Dominey. We will have a limited number of copies available and as always it will be first-come-first-served so make sure to make you way to booth #111 quickly. We’re also happy to have the authors of the book on-hand in our booth to do book signings, the schedule is below. If you’d like to get an idea of the type of content in the book, check out a recent post on System Center Central where the authors talk about the Veeam nworks MP for VMware.
