Swiss German VMUG – Tanzu-Event

von

So richtig trauen wir dem Wetter noch nicht. Auch wenn wir schon rund einen Monat Frühling haben, es ist nach wie vor kalt und öfters mal bewölkt und nass. Nichtsdestotrotz haben wir uns zusammengesetzt und wieder einen neuen Event für euch zusammengestellt!

Dieses Mal geht es um VMware Tanzu. Ihr wisst was Container sind und was die mit Computing zu tun haben? Kubernetes sagt euch etwas? Und ihr wollt gerne mehr über diese Technologie erfahren? Dann dürfte unser Event in Mai genau das Richtige sein um euren IT-Rucksack mit noch etwas mehr Wissen zu füllen!

Falls ihr schon alles dazu wissen solltet, schadet es nicht wenn ihr dennoch am Event teilnehmt. Es gibt immer die Möglichkeit mit anderen Teilnehmern zu fachsimpeln, den Blickwinkel zu ändern, oder einfach auch etwas Networking am Ende es „offiziellen“ Teils beim Apéro.

English Version

We don’t really trust the weather yet. Even though we’ve had spring for about a month now, it’s still cold and often cloudy and wet. Nevertheless, we got together and put together another new event for you!

This time it’s about VMware Tanzu. Do you know what containers are and what they have to do with computing? Kubernetes tells you something? And would you like to learn more about this technology? Then our event in May should be just the right thing to fill your IT backpack with a little more knowledge!

If you should already know everything about it, it doesn’t hurt if you still take part in the event. There is always the opportunity to talk shop with other participants, to change your perspective, or simply to do some networking at the end of the „official“ part at the aperitif.
