Native VCF S3 Object Storage demo!

Duncan Epping · Jun 23, 2026 · Leave a Comment

Stop paying the public cloud tax: Native S3 Object Storage for VCF changes everything! As I mentioned this on a recent podcast I did with Rakesh, so I took sometime this week to narrate the demo and here it is. In this demo you will see the VCF Automation UI and how VCF S3 Object Storage is enabled and configured so that it can be consumed by whomever needs it. That could be for backup purposes for instance, it could be (sovereign) AI, but could also be a target location for an application to store it’s data. Basically anything that speaks S3 can take advantage!

#108 – My Explore recap: VCF Native S3 Object Storage, Cyber Recovery, and vSAN on FC!

Duncan Epping · Dec 1, 2025 · Leave a Comment

I had some difficulties scheduling guests the past weeks due to my travel schedule, and as a result, I figured I would try something new. In this episode, I go over the various things I announced at Explore and Explore on Tour in London, Paris, and Frankfurt. I talk about VCF Native S3 Object Storage, the enhancements we are planning for Disaster Recovery as well as Cyber Recovery, and I also briefly touch on vSAN on FC.

You can listen to my solo episode, episode 108, on Spotify (bit.ly/3MxRyZC), Apple Podcasts (bit.ly/4iEM5ML), or via the embedded player on Yellow-Bricks below.

If you like to hear more about vSAN ESA Global Deduplication, make sure ⁠to go to this blog on Yellow-Bricks⁠, as it contains the links to the discussion Pete Koehler and I had on the show a while back. I also just published the demo I recorded for Explore on Youtube, make sure to watch that one!

I also had Jatin Jindal on the show a month or two ago to discuss all Ransomware/Cyber Recovery enhancements in-depth. You can listen to that episode via Spotify (bit.ly/3IWQCwz), Apple (bit.ly/4o6YVoG), or via the embedded player on yellow-bricks.com!
