This year VeeamON2017 is to be held in New Orleans, Louisiana on May 16th /18th.

Is with a great honor that I humbly thank to Veeam for their invitation this year as a blogger and Veeam specialist.

This is a great opportunity to see in loco all the news about Veeam and other vendors like CISCO, HPE, Microsoft and NetApp (just to mention the Premier Sponsors). However, Exagrid, NimbleStorage, PureStorage, and StarWind are some of the exhibitions that I want to attend and see what is new and maybe touch some of the available demos/labs.

This is the “VMworld” for Backups and Data availability (Cloud and Data management).

I will take the opportunity to meet all people that I know only by email, twitter or in the vExpert virtual community, and of course Veeam people.

Why should you attend VeeamON?

There are many reasons that you should attend VeeamON.

Main topics are:

• In-depth training and hands-on experience: Great opportunity to put hands-on in the latest news and features from each product/vendor. You can have on-site training and do certification for VMCE.
• What is new: You can attend technical sessions and labs from exhibitors.
•  Networking with industry experts: Talk and meet your peers and exchange experiences and share knowledge.

You can see here some of the 85 sessions that will take place: https://www.veeam.com/veeamon/sessions-at-glance

Main speakers for VeeamON2017 will be:

From: Microsoft Azure, CTO Mark Russinovich.
From: VMware, COO (Customer Operations) Sanjay Poonen.

This and much more is some of the reasons that VeeamON is a great opportunity for all Virtualization, Backup and Storage specialists.

I see you all in May in New Orleans (if you are attending).
