Sunday, August 30th

As one of the solution architects on the Operations Transformation Services team, it is my pleasure to share our breakout session schedule with you and make sure you can easily find transformation sessions of relevance and interest.
Why Operations Transformation, anyway? Our customers know that in order to optimize the business outcomes of VMware technologies, you will need to modernize your IT infrastructure, evolving from a traditional siloed IT model to one of a service-driven organization. And to do this, you must also align the people and processes that support the new IT model. With the help of VMware Operations Transformation Services, you can effectively adapt your organization, and automate and orchestrate processes to maximize the business agility and operational efficiency these technologies offer.
This week in San Francisco, we have 23 breakout sessions in our schedule, covering multiple dimensions of the operational transformation journey.
But let’s focus on Day One.
We have six sessions tomorrow, Monday, August 31, covering a great mix of topics, including several customer presenters and VMware IT sharing real-world transformation experiences.
