Welcome to the vLore Blog!

After eight years of providing VMware Authorized Consulting services and delivering VMware Authorized Training, I determined today was the day to create my own blog site aimed at achieving the following goals:

• Provide information to my students to supplement the material we cover in class.
• Provide a forum, where my students and customers could share their experiences and advice.
• Share information with the virtualization community that is fresh and unique.

Over the next several days, I plan to add initial content to this website such as:

• Details on the recently announced VMware Certification Roadmap, including its tracks, levels, and courses.
• My perspective on some of the recently announced VMware products, such as vCloud Suite, VMware Horizon Suite, and VMware Data Protection.
• Recommendations for preparing for VCP Exam.
• Other items I learned at VMworld 2012.

I hope you find this blog useful and I look forward to your feedback.
