Last week I headed out to Atlanta, Georgia to go to a partner only event from VMware called EMPOWER 2018. It was held at the CNN Center at the Omni Atlanta Hotel.

So it has taken me a while to get on this cloud train! After my VCDX I wanted to get my Linux skills up to a more competent level. It has been a weak point of mine for a very long time.

VMware vSphere 6.7 scalabilityBlog Name: vInfrastructure Blog Author: Andrea Mauro
The new VMware vSphere 6.7, recently available in GA, increase all configuration maximums to new limits (compared to the v6.5 and previous versions). Maybe we can say with no limit, or at least, to be serious, with really huge numbers compared to the actual needs and the existing compunting power.
