We just finished Explore in Las Vegas, and the various local Explore On Tour events are literally around the corner. I will most likely be in London, Frankfurt, and potentially Paris myself. It looks like Joe Baguley will also be at all of those events delivering the keynote! Why should you go? Well, listen to the episode to find out. We start out with a brief conversation with Joe, and then have Frank Denneman, Martin Hosken, and Lars Fiechtner joining to provide their insights! My call to action, if you are planning on attending, register as soon as registration is open as London sold out fast, and so did the UK VMUG the day after! Listen to the episode on Spotify (bit.ly/3VEnWLw), Apple (bit.ly/4pawc3l), or via the embedded player below or your podcast app of choice!

#100 – What is the Google Cloud VMware Engine all about? Featuring Sai Gopalan and Ken Bocchino
Episode 100, YESSSS! Finally, we managed to get there. For this episode, I invited two Google Cloud VMware Engine (GCVE) product managers to explain what GCVE is all about. We had Dr. Wade Holmes on the show, 84 episodes ago, to introduce GCVE, so it was time to re-introduce GCVE and discuss the current solution, and the benefits it brings with for instance the flexibility in node types, bring your own licensing, disaster recovery, networking, and much more. Ken and Sai had some interesting stories, so make sure to pay close attention! Listen via the embedded player below, or simply go to your favorite podcast player and find the episode there!

#097 – Running AI/ML workloads on top of VMware Cloud Foundation featuring Frank Denneman
I recently read a blog post on AI/ML performance on top of VCF, and figured it was time to invite Frank Denneman back to the podcast. During the episode we discuss VMware Private AI Foundation with NVIDIA, and Frank mentioned Ollama as a great starting point for those who want to explore the AI/ML world. I also thought the use cases for AI/ML Frank shared were very interesting. Check it out now!
