vChat – Episode 22 : The Late One

In vChat Episode 22 (aka “the late one”) David Davis, Eric Siebert and myself talk about a range of different tech and VMware related topics.  It’s been a while since our last vChat and things weren’t helped by my taking ages to edit this episode – so apologies for the delay.  Lesson Learnt:  Never commit to editing videos when moving house and most of your things are in storage.  Anyway, here are the topics we cover in this vGeek filled episode:

• VMworld Europe 2011 in Copenhagen including vSphere Client for iPad announced with vMotion and vCenter Operations Manager release at VMworld Europe
• VMworld 2012 in Barcelona
• Home Labs including HP Microserver, Iomega PX Series, and virtual vs physical
• VCP5 and how to prepare for it using TrainSignal’s vSphere 5 and Scott Lowe’s Mastering vSphere 5 book
• Last day to upgrade your VCP4 to the VCP5 is Feb 29
• Mike Laverick’s new SRM 5 book
• Duncan and Frank’s vSphere 5 Clustering Deepdive Book
• NEW VMware Press Books including Cody Bunch’s book on vCenter Orchestrator and Storage Design with vSphere
• Cisco Press book – Cloud Computing: Automating the Virtualized Data Center
• Top Virtualization Blog Voting – COMING SOON!
• iPhone 4S
• Apple Nano Watch with Lunatic Band
• Siri – John Briggs, UK Siri voice
• Reasons to go to vSphere 5
• vRAM Pooled Pricing & Cloud VM Pricing – article by David Davis “Chaotic Cloud Pricing and more!
