VMworld 2020 Demo - Voice activated workload migration to VMware Cloud SDDCs

10.19.2020 by William Lam // 2 Comments

One of my favorite but also most stressful part of preparing for a VMworld session is creating the demos. Even with a "virtual" VMworld this year, I personally felt it was even more stressful than a physical VMworld.

I have been presenting with Emad Younis for a number of years now and every year, we always end up with crazy ideas without thinking through all the feasibility aspects. This year was certainly no different and while working on our demo this year, I was seriously questioning my sanity and even the actual return on investment (ROI), if such a thing exists!? πŸ˜‚

In case you have not watched our session, check out HCP132: Planes, Trains and Workload Mobility, you can watch it for free and see the full demo.


I was really floored by all the positive feedback that we had received from attendees which includes the VMworld survey but also on Twitter and Slack. This was one of my favorite tweet and response πŸ˜€

Best session I have seen so farπŸ‘πŸ˜

VMware Cloud Services Status APIs

For customers that use any of the VMware Cloud Services, you can check the status of any or all services by visiting https://status.vmware-services.io. You even have the option of subscribe via a number of communication channels to receive updates.


Awhile back, I had someone ask whether our status page which uses the status.io service provides any APIs that could be used to programmatically retrieve status for specific service. I figured there probably is a way but only recently did I have a chance to follow-up on that request. The answer is yes and below is a quick example on how you use the REST APIs.
