To attendees, its value is unmatched—in fact, past attendees say that getting actionable ideas to immediately help them in their jobs is the most important reason they choose to attend VMworld.

Tell us your story

Most VMworld attendees have some experience with virtualization and they are eager for insights that go beyond the consolidation of non-mission critical workloads. Are you using virtual machines to build a better disaster recovery solution? Have you virtualized a critical enterprise system? Have you found a creative solution for charge back?
