VMware Hands On Labs Test Drive

What is it?

The Hands on Lab Portal is using the Project Nee Application developed by Mike D. and Curtis P. who have been part of the VMworld Hands on Labs Program for over 4 years. The Application is built for the web (HTML 5) and can run its workload from any vCloud resource (all you need to do is connect to a vCloud API and you are set) It looks like the design in the portal  can serve many different use cases (think SalesForce model) – the first of which were the Education Environment and our VMware Hands on Labs.

The VMware Hands-on Labs are now available online! VMware currently have 10 VMworld Labs and will be adding more during the next few weeks – in total they plan to have all 36 labs and add more along the way. The public beta has over one thousand users and is growing every day.

To participate in this exciting effort, register your interest below.

VMware Labs (Flings)

February 29, 2012 VMware, VMware Labs No comments

VMware Labs is VMware’s home for collaboration. They see collaboration as the information exchange that takes place internally and externally. On this site you can play around with the latest innovations coming out of VMware and share feedback and ideas directly with their engineers. VMware Labs is also the place where VMware engineers can share their cool and useful tools with you. With this in mind, Labs is made up of the following components:

Flings

VMware’s engineers work on tons of pet projects in their spare time, and are always looking to get feedback on their projects (or “flings”). Why flings? A fling is a short-term thing, not a serious relationship but a fun one. Likewise, the tools that are offered here are intended to be played with and explored. None of them are guaranteed to become part of any future product offering and there is no support for them. They are, however, totally free for you to download and play around with them!
