What to Expect for 2011
Breakout Sessions – More Freedom. Less Formality.
This year, there is pre-registration for Sessions, giving you the peace of mind that you will have a spot in the sessions you and your business care most about. Plan your daily agenda with a complete listing of available Sessions, and then build your schedule. Most Sessions are repeated at least once and additional sessions will be added leading up to VMworld, so if your preferred session is currently full, check back.
Knowledge Experts
Connect with subject-matter authorities through our Knowledge Experts Program. These members of the VMware community – including industry-leading customers, bloggers and VMware employees – conduct and participate in Breakout Sessions. They'll also be available for Group Discussions and One-on-One meetings throughout the conference.
One-on-One Meetings
Schedule 15-minute meetings with up to three Knowledge Experts during the conference to delve into topics that relate to your organization. Registration will open shortly.
Group Discussions
Led by Knowledge Experts, these informative and interactive discussion groups are a great opportunity for you to gain insight from like-minded colleagues in similar industries. Attendance is on a first-come, first-served basis.
Hands-on Labs
The VMworld Hands-On Labs (HOLs) are yet again taking a leap forward to provide a user experience greater than any other in the industry with 24000 lab hours being made available to conference attendees during VMworld. The HOLs will be serviced by a globally distributed public cloud which stretches across our Sponsor Datacenters; Switch in Las Vegas, Terremark in Miami, and COLT in Amsterdam all powered by vSphere 5.0 and vCloud Director 1.5.
New this year - The Labs have been designed around typical customer use case and business scenarios. This will allow conference attendees to have a hands-on experience exercising workflows that relate toreal-world scenarios. There will be 27 distinct labs available; two of which will have manuals available in German and Japanese along with the default English. We will also be offering threepartner labs this year from Cisco, EMC and NetApp. For the full list of labs being offered please refer to the Content Catalog.
