Welcome to the latest installment of the vExpert Cloud Management Blog Digest! Every month we share a handful of blogs created by our vExpert Cloud Management Community. These blogs are written by industry professionals from around the vCommunity and often feature walkthroughs, feature highlights, and news for vRealize Operations, vRealize Network Insight, vRealize Log Insight, vRealize Automation, and VMware Skyline. The vExpert title is awarded to individuals who dedicate their time outside of work to share their experiences and useful information about VMware products with the rest of the community. vExperts share their knowledge in many ways including presentations at VMware User Groups (VMUG), writing blog posts, and even creating content on YouTube.
2020 hasn’t gone the way any of us could have ever expected. However, with more time spent at home comes more time to write blogs and our vExperts have been busy! Not to mention all the awesome releases that came out in April! vRealize Operations 8.1, vRealize Operations Cloud, vRealize Log Insight 8.1, vRealize Automation 8.1, and vRealize Network Insight 5.2. This month we’re happy to feature the following 33 blog posts full of tips on running VMware’s cloud management products in production and in your own home lab.
