Moving out of the data center can be a very large undertaking, especially when you consider all those VMware enterprise licenses and the expertise gained by years of fine-tuning your virtual data centers. Come to this session and learn how painless, intuitive, and advantageous VMware on AWS can be. We show you how to leverage the skills that your teams already have and reduce the pressure that a migration can produce as you prepare and train your teams for the next phase of your organization’s journey to the cloud.
