Trying something new out, join us?
Hi all! Briana from the community team here. adhill and nfritsch came to me over the summer with the idea to host a virtual PUG meetup. So we put our heads together and came up with the idea of hosting a virtual PUG all about the landscape of virtualization options and figuring out how to make a choice or make the most of the choice you've already made. We'll meet on zoom & use breakout rooms to have small group discussions on 7 different virtualization topics. Info & registration link can be found by clicking on this image ⬇️ We're hosting it in 2 week and will be sending you a DoorDash gift card to cover your lunch during it. If you're part of a local chapter an SE in your area will be hosting a happy hour later in the day. (So far, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Columbus, OH have committed to this. Oh and you have to be at meetup to learn about the HH location & get swag.) We've brought in the Everpure experts on each of these options, and in some case they'll be interviewing customers who have already made the move. You'll have the chance to ask both of them your questions and get to know other Everpure customers that are making the same decision as you. What I'm asking is two things of you: 1) If you're interested, please register. This will help me know if it was a good idea to try out and will make it so I can get you that GC for lunch. Bonus points for commenting here & letting everyone know which room you're joining or thinking of joining. 2) If you think this is a terrible idea, tell us! Even better if you have an idea of what you'd like to see from the community team.
ICYMI: Azure Local webinar replay now available
Missed our Azure Local webinar? Catch the replay! This is a really exciting new joint solution between Everpure and Microsoft to deliver Azure services and Hyper-V virtualization in your data center, on your favorite FlashArray, all managed through the Azure portal. The webinar explains the value of the joint solution as well as details about how it works.Azure Local now works with FlashArray
A little bit of catch up here, but Azure Local is now fully GA with support for on-premises FlashArray. That means you can easily expand your current environment with FA external storage, or start a net new deployment. And yes, you can use an existing FlashArray to do it. Azure Local is shaping up to be a good VMware alternative as well as a strong solution for those needing soverign clouds, as Microsoft has a lot of support for regulatory frameworks and in-country data centers. You can learn more about it in the blog and feel free to post any questions here. We also have a webinar coming up on May 21, 9:00am PT, 12:00pm ET, so you can learn more about it.
