VMworld US has come to a close, and we’re thrilled to have been a part of the experience!

The excitement from the show floor demonstrates that more organizations are building platforms of the future and working to become cognitive enterprises. To do so, enterprises are relying on partnerships like IBM and VMware to support their journey to cloud. We were pleased to showcase our end-to-end approach—Advise, Move, Build, and Manage—to VMworld attendees.

We had 40+ presentations, featuring topics like cloud security, data center transformation, agile development, disaster recovery, and data storage infrastructure. These topics were selected by clients as top-performing interest areas and were developed to fast track adoption of knowledge and skills for practical application.
