Tours, Command Center and a Scavenger Hunt
The Hands-on Labs Tours are an opportunity to meet the lab creators and engineering teams that work to build the lab experiences. This journey behind-the-scenes takes about 30-45 minutes, covers all of the elements in the room as well as business and technical topics. The final destination on the tour will bring you to our world-famous Command Center wall where you can see how we monitor the Hands-on Labs room in real time, using VMware products. This year we have revamped the Command Center to showcase additional products and share some never-before-seen data.
