Today we are releasing the reaming network and Cloud Native Apps labs in 2017 Hands-on Labs catalog. While we have already released the HOL-1703 and HOL-1725 series of NSX based content, today’s labs focus on VMware Integrated OpenStack and Partner solutions from Check Point and Trend Micro.
These also contain our first vertical solutions for Healthcare and the Teclo industry. HOL-1741-USE-1 shows a use case on how Horizon, NSX and Trend Micro can help secure and protect the healthcare environment, but in practice, these solutions can be applied to any industry.
The VMware Network Functions Virtualization lab (HOL-1786-HBD-1) covers how communication service providers can virtualize network service functions to reduce CapEx and OpEx, while improving service agility.
As an added bonus, we are releasing the much anticipated Cloud Native Apps labs today. These where slated to be released later this week, but with the announcement at VMworld Europe of updates to the Photon Platform, we have received a number of requests for their release! Along with the Photon Platform lab, we are also releasing the vSphere Integrated Containers lab.

If you attended VMworld, you may have noticed some Hands-on Labs staff wearing the Yellow (banana) shirts. They were focused on assisting attendees with NSX and networking questions and are also affectionately known as “Tina’s Minions”! Hi Keith!
Stay tuned as we continue to release new labs this week!
