I just wanted to point out to sessions and group discussions that will discuss VMware VSAN. As you know, the sessions are recorded, but the discussions are not. So it's a probably smart move for some to attend the group discussions instead of the actual session as the recording will be available online after VMworld. But it's up to you how you'll manage your precious time once in Barcelona…
Also there will be a demos of the VSAN at the VMware booth in the Solution Exchange.
Most of the info about those sessions and group discussions came from VMware vSphere blog post by Charu Chaubal. Founding it interesting and pertinent, here are the details.
