Sometimes we need to play with products to better understand them. Obviously from a business point of view, playing with live production system can cause a bit of disruption.
I've been teaching courses before and a delegate decides to try what we're learning on their live kit, and a couple of times this has caused the live kit to function less well, just because I can give a virtual machine 64 vCPUs , doesn't mean I should.
VMware have now released a list of their most popular Hands On Labs, best bit is, they are free.
There's labs for:
vSphere 6.7
NSX
VMC on AWS
and much more.
Visit the VMware Top VMworld Hands On Labs site for more information, and to start playing with the products in a safe and controlled environment.
