Today I attended the virtual vRetreat event with Runecast and 10Zig, above you can see my doodle covering the Runecast presentation by @kev_johnson.
Runecast allows VMware administrators to proactively manage their vSphere patching, security compliance and HCL compatibility. By doing this it is predicted up to 90% of known issues can be prevented.
My doodle from VMworld 2019 in Barcelona can be seen below covering
Building and managing modern apps
NSX Intelligence
Wavefront
CloudHealth
and more
