A lot has changed since our last VMworld update. Firstly, Broadcom has acquired VMware, and secondly VMworld is no longer called VMworld, (now VMware Explore). One thing, though, remains the same: the need for simple, flexible, reliable and powerful data protection.
As customers expand their cloud portfolio, the focus on security and ransomware has been front and center. It seems like just about every day you hear news about a company that fell victim to a ransomware attack, their data now compromised to the world. As multi-cloud adoption and app modernization increases, so does the demand for protection and security of those workloads. Today, you can choose from a plethora of VMware-based public cloud offerings, including VMC on AWS, Google, IBM, Microsoft and Oracle. Whether you prefer Azure VMware Solution (AVS), Google Cloud VMware Engine (GCVE), IBM Cloud for VMware Solutions or Oracle Cloud VMware Solution (OCVS), you can still leverage your investments in on-premises VMware products. And there is an additional benefit: you can use Veeam with, and across, each of these offerings to ensure your data is protected. The ability to protect and safeguard your data is a vital part of your IT environment. Whether it’s on premise, multi-cloud, cloud native, apps and containers… Veeam has got you covered.
To take a deeper look into what Veeam is doing, make sure to check out Veeam’s sessions this year at VMware Explore. Like in the years past at VMworld, you’re not going to want to miss these Veeam-related sessions at VMware Explore 2022. Be sure to register for:
The Journey: Veeam and VMware – Cloud, Security, Kubernetes – Tuesday, Aug. 30 at 1 p.m. PDT
Michael Cade and Anthony Spiteri are back together, in person, with an update on the data protection innovations Veeam Software is bringing to the fore with regard to cloud, security and containers. In this session, we will look at how Veeam supports hybrid cloud deployments and enables data protection for virtualized workloads running on either hosted or multitenant environments, including VMware Cloud Director, with a look at what to expect from future releases. We will touch on security in today’s complex IT environments and how Veeam offers tooling to enable workload and data protection. Finally, we will look at the leadership Veeam offers when it comes to Kubernetes data management, including a closer look at VMware Tanzu Kubernetes Grid and all things native to the cloud.

#90DaysofDevOps – The DevOps Learning Journey – Tuesday Aug 30 at 11:15 a.m. PDT
I spent 90 days walking through some of the key areas of DevOps and documenting my journey, starting with what is and why do we use DevOps? This touches on the responsibilities of a role surrounded by DevOps processes and principles. It then goes into hands-on practical examples covering, programming languages, networking, Linux, containers, Kubernetes and lots more. In this session, we will take a look at this learning in a public resource that has gained more than 10,000 stars on GitHub to date and growing massively fast with contributors actively adding functionality and adding to the resource in so many ways, including translating to Chinese.
