You will learn how to get the most out of your Horizon platform and user experience (UX), even though you might not even run simulation apps. Johan, Spencer and Matt will explain the design methodology used, the lessons learned during building and testing, and the tools used to troubleshoot UX issues, as well as show demos along the way. This session won the VMworld People’s Choice award in 2021, and the team will share some new findings and lessons learned since then as well as new features in Horizon, new hardware options, and the impact of cloud offerings.

Sponsor Company Name: Intel
Endpoint management for the hybrid workforce has become more diverse and complicated over the past few years. Traditional management and support solutions have limitations when the OS won’t boot, the device is powered down, or the device is not connected to the corporate network. VMware and Intel have partnered to integrate the leading unified endpoint management solution, VMware Workspace ONE, with the power of Intel vPro and Intel Endpoint Cloud Services technologies. Learn how Workspace ONE and Intel technologies help customers access, manage and secure devices remotely.

VMTN TechTalk
Building a Resilient Kubernetes Platform
[VMTN2337BCN]
Using examples from the field, we will talk about what it actually means to build a highly available, production-ready, cloud native app platform architecture. We will cover distributed application architectures and go in depth about the kind of infrastructural resources they require underneath them, from storage and state concerns to networking, monitoring and, of course, security. And we won’t limit ourselves to only Kubernetes. Building a resilient Kubernetes-based platform requires looking at the entire stack: hardware, data center topologies, VMware vSphere, WAN, VMware NSX, and storage. In other words, the entire stack. We will also cover the vSphere with VMware Tanzu multi-zonal architecture in detail, what this means for data center and high-availability design, as well as disaster recovery scenarios and how to think about failure risk.
Thursday, Nov 9 | 11:30 AM – 11:55 AM CET

VMTN TechTalk
What Is VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery?
[VMTN2191BCN]
VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery is a powerful disaster recovery solution that can help companies optimize DR costs.

In this session, we will explain what VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery is and how it works.

What the X? Demystifying the Different Experiences (EX/UX and DEX)
[VMTN2342BCN]
For years, we’ve spoken about user experience (UX) in IT, but did we really care about it? In recent years, we have also heard or read about employee experience (EX). And to make things more complicated, we now also have digital employee experience (DEX). But what do these things actually mean, and if anything, what do they have in common? In this session, we demystify the different X’s and cover why they are relevant.
