Microsoft is headed to VMware Explore 2022 in San Francisco

[Guest KirstenMegahan]

A couple of BIG changes this year...

 

We are back to meeting in-person, and VMworld is now called VMware Explore!

 

 

 

After two years of virtual meetings this conference is going to be super busy with lots to see and learn. If you want to know about Azure, the work we are doing with VMware, or just have a great conversation, don’t be shy and reach out to say hello. We'd love to talk to you so stop by our booth! We may even have some cool stickers too.

 

 

 

This year we will have a bunch of sessions with Microsoft employees on stage, so if you're building out your schedule check them out:

 

 

 

Microsoft Keynote: Transform your VMware Workloads with Microsoft Azure

 

Speaker: Jeff Woolsey, Principal PM Manager, Microsoft

 

Date/Time: Wednesday, August 31 @ 9:30 AM - 10:30 AM PDT

 

 

 

Jeff will share how customers can transform their on-prem VMware environments using Microsoft Azure. Keynote attendees will learn how to:

 

• Address end of support for vSphere, Windows Server, and SQL Server
  
• Use familiar VMware skills to migrate or extend your VMware environment to the cloud, including hybrid cloud options with Azure VMware Solution and Azure Arc
  
• Modernize hybrid work with Azure Virtual Desktop and Horizon Cloud
  
• Give developers the tools they need with Azure Spring Apps
  

 

 

 

In addition, here are some other Microsoft Azure-related sessions that we highly recommend for learning more about Azure + VMware:
