The ESX Virtualization website is an English-speaking resource and it is one of the Top Virtualization sites with daily updates. Virtualization of Physical systems, and disaster recovery scenarios with fast backups and recovery. Those are the daily challenges I'm working on…
vExpert x17 (2009 – 2025) – Becoming vExpert a few years back for the first time has pushed me really forward in my professional career and also gave me a lot of motivation for the future. This website – ESX Virtualization at vladan.fr started as a simple bookmarking website in 2008.
But with the daily updates it has become a reference for the VMware Virtualization Website and one of the Top Blogs on the Virtualization sphere. I'm trying to present the articles on my website in ‘digestible' format to my readers, with the idea that not everyone is a VCP, VCAP or VCDX…..
I have been working with VMware and Microsoft virtualization technologies and as an IT admin for more than 20 years. Passing my fist VMware Certified Professional for datacenter virtualization (VCP-DCV) was the first step (my experience from the exam here).
However, to be able to successfully implement, deploy, manage, and troubleshoot VMware vSphere installations, you can't take VCP for granted.
That's why I passed a VCAP-DCD and VCAP-DCA.
If you too want to become a professional certified by VMware, you should check out my FREE VCP-DCV for vSphere 8.0 page (update: the exam is phased out now, December 2025)., and also VCP-VVF Administrator exam page (for vSphere 9.x product).
You can also check the older one, VCP-DCV Study Guide for vSphere 7.0 which is now expired. ( in January 2024.)
There are many blogs on the Internet concerning Virtualization and IT, but not every blogger seems to keep posting regularly. In fact, there are many dead blogs…. It's logical because bloggers usually have something else to do during the day then prepare new articles, edit photos or videos, or do a complete installation of some new product in a lab…. That's why there are many blogs appearing every day, but there are many dead blogs and websites too….
Virtualization community who gives us their love, and every time I visit VMworld I'm amazed by the folks who really like the blog, and how it helps them in their daily job!
So you'll be able to find videos about the VMware ESX and ESXi servers, I'm presenting also Microsoft's Hyper-V virtualization technology, which is slowly closing the gap…
If you are representing a company and want to get some exposure for your company, you can visit the Advertise Section of this Website, where you'll be able to find some guidelines on what is direct advertising and how your company can benefit from it.
The ESX Virtualization has become one of the references, how-to and technical websites oriented on virtualization and disaster recovery solutions, serving over 300-400 thousands page views/month.
