CloudCredibility.com has selected 8 Pro players to make the leap into the inaugural first CloudCred Pro League.

Typically, on CloudCred, players complete learning or engagement tasks on their own or with their team, earn points, and move up the leaderboards.  No one but the player can observe what strategies he or she has used, and no one is able to watch this process.

With the Pro League, however, play is moving to Twitch. You’ll still find the tasks on CloudCred, where points and status and announcements will be displayed – but each Pro prayer will livestream the steps involved in completing each task,  so you can learn by watching.

The first set of matches is Season 1 and will cover vSphere 6.7 – and Match 1 is entitled Upgrade to vSphere 6.7. So, as you can guess, the four Match 1 tasks will cover the intricacies of upgrading. They’ll install and configure vCenter Server for Windows 6.0 or 6.5, configure the Update Manager, use the Appliance Migration Tool, and more throughout this 6-week Match.

If you want to follow the matches you can simple check the CloudCred page, or the CloudCred Twitch account, or each individual account. But the easy way is from the Twitch channel:

My account on CloudCred is the following:

Match 1 kicks off Monday, March 25, so get your home labs fired up and be sure to follow our Pros’ Twitch accounts by clicking on the links on the Pro League World Page. 

Tog get involved in this cool new way to play and learn, you can complete the tasks too, by playing the Homelab: Upgrade to vSphere 6.7 Badge, Tasks 5749 – 5753.
