VMware Explore is back in Las Vegas in less than two weeks! At this year’s VMware Explore, two major brands – VMware Aria and VMware Tanzu – are coming together in a single track for the first time ever, representing our recently-formed Modern Applications and Management Business Group. Additionally, for the first time we will be welcoming the Spring enthusiast community and integrating the developer focused SpringOne event with VMware Explore. Our goal is to help customers accelerate business agility by accelerating their application delivery – and we do this by helping them develop, operate and optimize at scale, across any cloud, anywhere.
We are so excited to share all the latest in Modern Applications and Management across keynotes, breakout sessions, expert roundtables, The Expo, hands-on-labs, and more. With so much happening in just a few short days at VMware Explore, we understand that it can be daunting to plan your agenda and see all that you want to see. Fear not and read on for a guide to modern applications and management at VMware Explore Las Vegas!
For those unable to attend the conference in person, there are still plenty of ways to stay connected and experience VMware Explore Las Vegas virtually. More information can be found at the bottom of this blog on how to watch our keynotes and view our sessions on-demand.
