Vegas & VMWare!
2010-01-25 14:02:56


I have about two weeks until my company sends me to Vegas for the VMWare parter exchange conference. I really lucked out on this one. VMWare is pretty cool technology and Vegas is... well, it's not Dallas. And that's pretty much what I look for when I travel!
VMWare, for those who aren't familiar, is a technology that lets you virtualize servers. It has a lot of neat tricks such as the ability to instantly deploy a new server or share resources among several different servers. It's something that I would like to learn more about (and something that my company wants me certified in), but unfortunately even with the certs I've taken (Vmware Technical Sales is the only one that comes to mind, although I have completed one other and am halfway through a 3rd) I've had very little actual experience with it.
Moving on the the Vegas part of the trip, I am flying out of the Santa Rosa Airport, which will make life much simpler. I've never flown on a prop plane before, so that will also be an experience.
The plan thus far is to fly out on Sunday the 7th. For the conference, I will be staying at Mandalay Bay. The conference ends on the 11th at which time I'm flying Karly out to meet me, I'm taking the 12th off and returning on the 14th. During this time period I booked a room at the Riviera. The evening of the 11th, I am getting us tickets to see the Lion King musical. That evening sometime, Matt and Amanda will be arriving via Car. With the exception of seeing the Jubilee show on that Saturday, the rest of the trip is pretty much going to be played by ear.
I'm pretty excited though. Seems like it's been forever since I've gotten out of town!
