June Meeting Wrap-up

KC VMUG thanks sponsor Coraid and user-presenters from Cerner for a great event today. Please check out Coraid’s website for more information on their innovative approach to storage networking.

As a reminder, the next meeting will be the first Thursday of August (2-Aug-2012) instead of the third in order to give us a little more separation from VMworld, which kicks off at the end of the month.

Given some of the date changes we’ve had this year, the website now sports a quick calendar, which can be viewed/reviewed any time you’re needing a reminder of upcoming events.

2012 Regional Meeting: Date & Venue

The leadership team for the Kansas City VMUG has chosen the Overland Park Convention Center as the location, and Tuesday, December 11 as the date for the Fourth Annual Midwest Regional VMware User Group Meeting.

A Regional VMUG Meeting is an all-day event focused on VMware and Partner technologies. Last year’s event had a great turnout, and the leadership team is hoping to exceed that record in 2012! In addition to a major presence by VMware itself, attendees will have the opportunity to visit with dozens of Partner representatives, attend technical sessions, and spend time with hands-on labs.

It’s also a great opportunity to network with your peers.

Interested partners should contact Dave Burnell for the prospectus.

June Meeting: Schedule Change!

The previously-scheduled meeting on Thursday, June 21 has been moved to Wednesday, June 27. We’ll also have a different sponsor and agenda, but the times should be the same. Keep an eye here for details as we flesh them out.

Update on Thursday, May 24, 2012 at 2:24PM by kcvmug

Coraid will sponsor and present their AoE (ATA over Ethernet) storage technology as an alternative to “classic” Fibre Channel or iSCSI technologies.
