VMware vSphere 7 Upgrade, vSphere+, and the VMware Acquisition

Описание: In this episode of Krome Cast - Tech IT Out, we discuss upgrading to vSphere 7 before the end of general support for vSphere 6.5 and vSphere 6.7, on the 15th October 2022.

For any VMware customers that have delayed upgrading their vSphere environment, due to other projects or the pandemic, now is the time to embark on your vSphere 7 upgrade, or even to the latest version vSphere 8 (which was announced this week 30.08.22).

In this podcast, we talk about some of the key enhancements between vSphere 6.7 and vSphere 7, including the integration with Kubernetes, the improvements made to patching with VMware Lifecycle Manager, the new MFA feature which protects your environment from attacks, enhanced DRS functionality and the integration with Azure, AWS, G-Cloud and improved DR functionality. We also review how the new vSphere+ allows you to manage a multi-cloud environment, with a centralised management console.
