Welcome to the January 2021 edition of the Application Modernization vExpert blog digest. The Application Modernization vExpert program, which awards the Application Modernization vExpert title to industry professionals who dedicate their spare time to sharing their knowledge of and experience with VMware products with the rest of the community, launched mid-September 2020, and the vExperts have been busy creating content ever since.
Every few months, we share a handful of blog posts created by the vExperts, which include feature highlights and walkthroughs, as well as news from the VMware Tanzu portfolio and beyond.
vExperts share their knowledge in many ways, including writing blog posts, giving presentations at VMware User Groups (VMUG)—even creating content on YouTube. We are delighted to share with you the following posts, which were published in November through January, by our community around the globe!
