The VMware Modern Applications Platform team is excited to announce the Application Modernization vExpert program for 2020. If you’re not familiar with vExpert, the program is designed to recognize individuals who are passionate about sharing their knowledge of VMware technologies with the broader community.
What is an Application Modernization vExpert?
Individuals who are awarded Application Modernization vExpert status are the cream of the crop when it comes to application modernization knowledge, including platforms that modern applications run on. They’re advocates of VMware Tanzu—a portfolio of VMware products and services for modernizing applications and infrastructure—as well as other application platforms running on VMware solutions. vExperts love “giving back” to the community by sharing their knowledge with their peers, whether through blogging or speaking at events like VMworld and VMUG.
Benefits of the Application Modernization vExpert Program
Becoming an Application Modernization vExpert comes with unique perks. In addition to the vExpert title and the cool new badge, VMware will provide a number of great opportunities to give you the recognition you deserve.
Here’s what Application Modernization vExperts gain:
-
Amplification of the articles you write through VMware channels, such as the Tanzu social media channels
-
Exposure at VMware events, including leading conferences like VMworld
-
Opportunities to interface with and provide feedback to the VMware Tanzu product and engineering teams, casting your influence on the leading Kubernetes solutions in the industry
