In this post I wanted to share a few short videos from the VMware Technical Communications team. The videos cover the concepts and architecture of Virtual Volumes and provide a good overview of the building blocks for a vVols deployment.
Virtual Volumes Part 1: Concepts
This first video provides an overview of some key Virtual Volumes concepts, including the relationship between Storage Containers, Virtual Datastores, and Protocol Endpoints.
Virtual Volumes part 2: Architecture

Hopefully these videos have given you a good introduction to Virtual Volumes and how the various components interact with each other.
Some other great resources for getting started with Virtual Volumes are:
