VMware vExpert 2014

VMware announced yesterday on the VMTN blog the vExpert 2014 list…and I’m proud to say that I’m part of that list (for the 1st time) ! :)

Compared to last year where 581 vExperts were nominated, VMware awarded 754 people with the vExpert title this year, which is a huge step forward (+35%). The vExpert directory is not updated yet, but it should be during the week.

[...] the vExpert Program the people who have made some of the most important contributions to the VMware community. These are the bloggers, book authors, VMUG leaders, speakers, tool builders, community leaders and general enthusiasts. They work as IT admins and architects for VMware customers, they act as trusted advisors and implementors for VMware partners or as independent consultants, and some work for VMware itself. All of them have the passion and enthusiasm for technology and applying technology to solve problems. They have contributed to the success of us all by sharing their knowledge and expertise over their days, nights, and weekends.
