Welcome to our first 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; the candidates who were accepted into the program have been busy creating content ever since. And so starting this month, we will share a list of posts written by vExperts that will feature walkthroughs, news, and other highlights from the VMware Tanzu portfolio and beyond.
vExperts share their knowledge in many ways, from writing blog posts to creating presentations for VMware User Groups to making YouTube videos. We’re delighted to share with you the following posts, arranged by topic, that were published in September and October by members of our community from all around the globe!
