VMware vSphere 5 has been released with 190+ feature additions / updates that will help users deploy, manage, and build their cloud infrastructure, no matter what their size.
There is a new licensing model that is fairly complex but I can help walk you through that if you message me. A lot of consultants are jumping on the web and posting all types of premature information about the new release. I’ve wanted to set back and let everything get ironed out before posting.
I was at a briefing a week ago where one Technical Services Manager was certain he was right about something….to the point of arguing with one of VMware’s executive managers. The point he was arguing about was mentioned in a beta release which never made it to production……ugh FAIL on his part.
Anyway the purpose of this post is to provide a set of links and a bit of information that will help you navigate this new product version release.
