This post provides a Tech101 breakdown of VMware NSX. If you have heard the buzz-word “NSX” or “Network Virtualisation” and want to learn more about it, this post is for you. Continue reading Tech101 – VMware NSX
I am very pleased to announce my third sponsor: Veeam Software. Veeam Software was founded in 2006 to provide a management eco-system around VMware’s ESX Server. They have been around for a long time and have won a multitude of industry awards during their journey.
When VMware acquired Nicira and developed the first version of NSX (4.x), they were very cagey about which customers would be allowed to evaluate it in a “Proof of Concept” (with very specific success criteria). I fully understand the strategy, they wanted to manage expectations and minimise bad press by controlling it very carefully.
The current Elite Architecture Design Certifications are: VMware Certified Design eXpert (VCDX) and Cisco Certified Architect (CCAr).
At VMworld 2014 US, there was a lot of speculation about the integrity and future of the VCDX program with Mark Brunstad and John Arrasjid moving to greener pastures. With Chris Colotti taking over as Principal Architect and VCDX Evangelist, I think the VCDX Program is in good hands. This will be further reinforced once the new VCDX Program Manager is announced.
Five months ago I built my home lab with VSAN and performance tested it (with the default policy). It turns out I was missing a key part of the configuration: the “Service Provider URLs”. Here is the complete VMware Virtual SAN configuration process for a home lab.
I attended TAM day yesterday which was a great event. The keynote was fantastic with VMware President and COO, Carl Eschenbach, and the highlight of the day was the “Ask an Expert” lunch, where 100+ experts from all silos of VMware were available for discussions over lunch.
This is my second TAM day and I must say it just gets better and better every year with 1000+ TAM customers attending the event. So if you are a serious VMware customer and you want to maximise and leverage your VMware investment, then consider joining the TAM program.
