Early in 2023, the Cross-Cloud Services team started the Multi-Cloud Expedition – a Livestream series airing monthly on LinkedIn. In the Expedition, we’ve brought together industry and VMware subject matter experts to discuss and demo solutions to the most pressing multi-cloud challenges today. At VMware Explore 2023 Las Vegas we continued the discussion over 2 episodes from “The Hub” talking through the top 10 Multi-cloud challenges we hear from customers:
We have cultivated a list of key sessions (available now on-demand) that align and highlight how VMware is helping our customers and partners meet and resolve these challenges. Tune in to hear host Alexander Romero, Senior Director of Cross-Cloud Services at VMware, and David Linthicum, Chief Cloud Strategy Officer Deloitte Consulting, share their insights and the cultivated session list helping you maximize your learning and experience at VMware Explore.
