VMworld 2019 is happening tomorrow (It is already Saturday here) and as I am just about to embark on the 20+ hour journey from PER to SFO I thought it was better late than never to share my top session picks. Now with sessions available online it doesn’t really matter that the actual sessions are fully booked. The theme this year is “Make Your Mark” …which does fall in line with themes of past VMworld events. It’s all about VMware empowering it’s customers to do great things with its technology.

I’ve already given a session breakdown and analysis for this years event… and as a recap here are some of the keyword numbers relating to what tech is in what session.

Out of all that, and the 1348 sessions total, that are currently in the catalog I have chosen then list below as my top session picks.

vSphere HA and DRS Hybrid Cloud Deep Dive [HBI2186BU]

60 Minutes of Non-Uniform Memory Architecture [HBI2278BU]

vCloud Director.Next : Deliver Cloud Services on Any VMware Endpoint [HBI2452BU]

Why Cloud Providers Choose VMware vCloud Director as Their Cloud Platform [HBI1453PU]

VMware Cloud on AWS: Advanced Automation Techniques [HBI1463BU]

The Future of vSphere: What you Need to Know [HBI4937BU]

NSX-T for Service Providers [MTE6105U]

Kubernetes Networking with NSX-T [MTE6104U]

vSAN Best Practices [HCI3450BU]

Deconstructing vSAN: A Deep Dive into the internals of vSAN [HCI1342BU]

VMware in Any Cloud: Introducing Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud VMware Solutions [HBI4446BU]

Also wanted to again call out the Veeam Sessions.

Backups are just the start! Enhanced Data Mobility with Veeam [HBI3535BUS]

Enhancing Data Protection for vSphere with What’s Coming from Veeam [HBI3532BUS]

A lot of those sessions above relate to my ongoing interest in the service providers world and my continued passion in vCloud Director, NSX and vSAN as core VMware technologies. I also think the first two I put in the list are important because in this day of instant (gratification) services we still need to be mindful of what is happening underneath the surface…. it’s not just a case of some computer running some workload somewhere!

All in all it should be a great week in SFO and looking forward to the event… now to finish packing and get to the airport!
