I was on the VMware forums on Wednesday and one of the biggest names in Software Defined Networking at VMware made a posting about a offering VMware was giving away in regards to training for VMware’s Software-Defined Networking for the datacenter and for vCloud, the software behind what makes the ‘cloud’ a reality for MSP industry who are “in-deep” as they say, so I was like sure why not I’ll make a post about my career and see what happens…

I feel that for the MSP world to really work, there needs to be a shift from private clouds to a hybrid with a public to public IaaS fabric that solves one of the biggest problems in IT right now, Security. VMware NSX is one of the most secure public to public frameworks I have ever seen. It solves the problems we, as IT professionals face, in regards to the concerns of customers around security and this was expressed in the posting.

Well, I was a little shocked this morning, as I got selected!
Here is what the reward was and what they asked. 🙂
