There are only two weeks left to VMworld Europe 2011, and probably there are also some promotion code left (search at vendor site or forum).
This event is a great opportunity for training and information with a lot of sessions (and note that is possible watch at them also later), but I see at least two good reasons to attend at this kind of events (and not only VMworld):
- Hands-on Labs: they are great and cover the latest (or future) products.
- Network: meet and know people is invaluable.
But of course there can be also some reasons to do not attend at this event:
- It is too close to the VMworld US… so who was lucky enough to be there, maybe do no need to attend also at the European edition.
- Most products have already been announced and/or released… so there will be less news on feature release of them… but still news on strategies, vision, and other new products.
- Copenhagen is quite expensive… the travel must be planned well… but maybe there are still some good opportunity for hotel and fly “cheap”.
Remenber also that one VMworld ticket will be draw during the Italian VMUG Meeting :)
