Introduction
Hello to all readers of my blog!
We continue the series of articles “VMware Learning. Year 2020”.
In March of this year, VMware announced a new version of vSphere 7 – the biggest innovation since the launch of ESXi – Unified management technology for Containers and VMs.
vSphere 7 is based on the following key features, including:
- Providing infrastructure for developers with support for artificial intelligence;
- Simplification of processes;
- Full scalability;
- Improving infrastructure and data security.
To help develop their skills and enable the organization to realize the latest benefits of vSphere 7, VMware has announced the release of 7 new courses.
So today we will talk about new curricula on VMware Vsphere 7.
VMware vSphere 7
VMware vSphere is server virtualization software and the heart of a Software-Defined Data Center (SDDC) that helps you run, manage, connect and secure applications in a shared cloud operating environment.
