VMworld is less than a week away! If you have been looking for a chance to take a look at VMware’s vRealize Operations Manager (previously known as vCenter Operations) or just want to learn more about it, look no further than VMworld 2015 in San Francisco. This year at VMworld there are 100 sessions and multiple vendors that will be focusing on the vRealize space. Let’s take a look at some of the best places to learn more about vRealize Operations (vROps) at VMworld 2015.
Are you new to vROps?
Learn how customers just like you are actively using this tool as their primary source of monitoring. Join Drew Koerner and Brett Read to see how Sutter Health is currently using native vROps functionality to reduce the time to resolution when a Doctor asks, “Why is my system slow?” (MGT4835). Visit Cox Automotive and let them show you how they are using vROps with the Management Pack for AWS to get data on their AWS Cloud Systems (MGT4783). Finish off your week with VMware & GMO to see how they use vRealize features to right-size their environment, ensuring they get the most out of their hardware (MGT4950).
Already familiar with vROps?
Not new to vROps? Want to get more technical and see the latest features in vROps 6.1? Join Ben Todd & Jeff Godfrey from VMware as they give a technical deep dive of the latest features of vROps 6.1, set to release in September (VAPP5719). Learn how vROps solves real-world issues with Shyamal Patel & Samuel McBride as they go over three technical use cases on a live environment (MGT4928).

Between sessions, VMworld also has a number of exhibitors who will be displaying existing and soon-to-be-released management packs for vRealize Operations.
