\"vmworld2021\"<\/a>It is that time of the year again to start looking forward to VMworld 2021<\/a>. Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic VMworld 2021 will again be \u201cfully virtual\u201d again. <\/p>\n

The upside to a virtual event is that you don\u2019t need to walk across a big conference complex to get from one session to another. You can follow the conference from the luxury of you own chair and desk. Poor your own drink of choice, sit back and relax and take in all the information on VMware latest and greatest from your own home. Because VMworld 2021 will be fully virtual, like last year that will make it easier for people to attend since you don\u2019t need to arrange travel (flight\/hotel) to attend VMworld.<\/p>\n
