Best Videos VMworld 2011 Las Vegas

I'll try to gather the best videos from VMworld 2011 in Las Vegas.

This post will get updated regularly with the best video links from the event. There are videos from VMware TV channel, there are videos from Bloggers and writers, there are videos uploaded from mobile phones. I mean, there is such many resources in video this year….

I saw few messages on twitter yesterday saying that there were not enough IP addresses for the wireless connections… No wonder if there is like more than 20 000 visitors and each of them carrying like 3 wireless devices…. So almost every and each of those devices needs an IP address… it's quite huge…. -:).

Of course I missed all the live events, because of my geographical situation here at the Reunion Island, but I'm not the only one. A fellow blogger Gregg Robertson living at South Africa has got probably the same troubles with time zones, but he managed to put on great post summarizing the first day at VMworld Las Vegas 2011.

So let's start with Doughlas Phillips and Richard Garsthagen and gather some videos and links :

Day 1: Labs gonna be accessible for public in 2012, so you no longer need to build a lab at home to test VMware solutions…? (I think it's cool to have my own lab anyway…. -:).

Day1: Paul Maritz explains what is VMware slowly becaming – an IT Solutions company. So no more virtualization?…. Not so sure…-:). But the key feature for automation is the storage automation in vSphere… a technical heavy lifting.
