FROM THE EDITORS VIRTUAL DESK

Hi everone, I hope you have had a successful week. Of course from a VMware there has been a lot of news. Firstly we have VMworld Europe which has just wrapped up. There have been a number of major announcements at that conference which you may want to check out. Many of these are listed below in the newsletter.

 

Then we have the news regarding Dell and EMC. There have been many articles on this as well over the past week and some very interesting reading. The VMware press release for this announcement can be found here.

 

With both VMworld Europe and the Dell news I am certain there will be many news stories over the next weeks which I will do my best to report on in the newsletter.

 

I wish everyone a successful week.

 

Virtually Yours
